G'day,

Great job, looks like your having fun.

A little tip on those coin photos. While you have a very nice table top I'm sure, perhaps if you crop closer around the coin it will help keep the piccy size down and only show the relevant object of interest. Unless of course you want us to see more table.

Try loading the pic into a program like Irfanview. You can crop, resize, adjust colour and
do all sorts of cool stuff. http://www.irfanview.com/

OK, I havent been upto near as much noodling of late, but have stumbled across some interesting world coins finds and buys of late... The height of these is a 1951J 2 Deutsche Mark and 1932 Danzig 10Pf, closely followed by an UNC 1915 10 Kopeken (the .500 silver ones)...

But on the Australian side of things, have picked up a few more NCLT things and noodled a few aUNC 2004-2007 $1 and $2; still no 2008's yet!
