My pictures were taken with a Canon Rebel XT.

I feel my coin pictures still need some improvement.

I recently bought a Canon 5Ti and a 100mm lens,
that when I get better at taking pictures with
I hope to take new pictures of most of my coins.

Sometimes getting a good pictures is just having
a good problem free coin.

Here is a couple more.
1993 S Jefferson

My favorite is the one that brought back the commemoratives... the 1982 Washington Half Dollar. Love this design.

I love that issue as well. I have both the proof and uncirculated, bought from the mint in 1982. My very first commemorative coins. They now reside in my 7070.

Just got my UNC Jamestown in the mail yesterday and it's nicer in hand than I expected. Obv is great.

In the last few weeks I've added the Jamestown, John Marshall and Congress to my collection. Love these coins!

Surprised nobody has mentioned the 2008 Bald Eagle commemorative yet. Probably my most favorite.

I'll throw out another nice one nobody has mentioned yet. The 1997 U.S. Botanic Garden.
