Spent some time putting this together in Photoshop tonight, wanted to get a single picture put together of the 1948 Mint Set I assembled awhile back. Thought I'd show you the results, it's not perfect, but not terrible!

Happy New Year

I'll take original and untouched over perfect any day. It's an amazing set. The sizing of the Franklin halves in the image is kind of a curve ball though. Thanks for sharing and Happy new year.

I need to redo it a bit to make the Franklin halves more appropriately sized, and take better pictures of a couple of the coins, so that's on the "to-do" list for 2017!

Amazing set, thanks for sharing. I agree with making the halves bigger in the picture. I really like that 48-D dime! 67 AND FB with toning..nice touch! The 40s and early 50s sets are my favorites and underrated IMO. Happy New Years to you and your family!

Beautiful selections across the board. I agree that resizing closer to comparable dimensions would be helpful.

Was there a particular reason you chose this date?

Beautiful set paralyse! Might just be the lighting, but I love the subtle toning on the 48-D Franklin!
