I did , so I created a 8x8 photo book over the Thanks giving holidays and just got it by mail yesterday. Now that I have it hand , I see things to improve. For now this is better than going to the bank frequently.

That's a very cool idea and it looks as though it turned out nicely.

Thanks! , I need to work on removing the white background from the pictures and it takes time. I used the pictures from the auction houses so they came up pretty good. Also didnt noticed one of the cover page picture was not resized :) But overall I think it worked out well.

PS: I used shutterfly as they had 40% off and my wife already had some additional discounts.

My local banks have all stopped accepting deposits in their vaults citing the risk of terrorism, the possibility that someone will place a bomb in a box and deposit it, then detonate it (presumably at a later time).

Do US banks have a way of detecting suspect deposits or do they just accept or ignore the risk ?

Wow. I haven't heard anything about such a policy. It may be that some US banks are like that, but I hope it doesn't become well known because somebody would eventually try it. I cringe when I hear things on TV like details of how attacks in the past have taken place. The news channels are serving as intel to ISIL and our home grown nut jobs and jihadists, giving them ideas of how they could have done things better. Or even coming up with new ways to do things, like what we're talking about.

So let's talk coins before the conversation turns political.

Rest in Peace

Interesting question. As Biedercoins pointed out this is fodder for terrorism.
Sorry, plonker for interrupting your post.

Do you use Photoshop? There's a slick circular masking tool or one of the "magic" smart selection commands that came out of CS6. I don't subscribe to Adobe's Creative Cloud (CC) so it's probably even easier by now. In fact, I'm betting that coop has a tutorial already for posting or instruction in the General Discussion section.

Just an idea.

Rest in Peace

I hope these coins were not deposited. I am sure they are in a bank safe deposit box.

Great idea, I sure miss seeing my box contents.

Collections are generally safer at the bank than at home, even though the bank's box contents are not federally insured against tampering, fire, flood etc. My insurance co. will not cover safe deposit box contents.

Never even think about what is in my safe deposit boxes. I have enough Albums here in my house to keep me occupied. Not even sure what is there.
