I'm not positive how the uploading feature works for newer members - once you reach 50 posts, you get access to the Upload Gallery which is different - but you can use the web address of the pic you want to post along with this "Insert Image" button on the Reply screen (I circled it in red):



When you click on the link of a pic, as you've been able to post so far, it opens in a new window. You can then copy and paste the web address of that pic from your browser screen.

It would have to look like this in the posting box....

All right. How'd you do that? Oh, I see - do the embedded open/close tags break the IMG tag?

Bobby, I've successfully received Bryan's **(No Zip Files Allowed)** 's, and I'm going through them. Bryan, I could sure use full shots of a couple of those. The ones with the whimsical die polishing around the eagle's legs, and the ones with the vertical die cracks near Liberty's face particularly.

Cool. Didn't we start this thread talking about a coin I bought? Oh, yeah - if we keep the OT discussion going long enough, the thread will still be on Page 1 when I get it in-hand.

was these not the ones you were needing?

it is a Philadelphia coin, I thought I had mentioned that in the emails but maybe I didn't, sorry about that. I have a D minted 1921 also when you get finished with this one, doesn't have all the cracks the P coin does but still alot of cracks on it

absolutely Not! I know nothing about 1921 VAM's, but that was all 1 coin, didn't want to confuse you with more than one at a time

way to complicated, aint they a different tail feather I can look at or something? anyhow here is a picture of the reeding


I am gonna go out on a limb here and say its not abmormal reeding

Interesting stuff. The crack through the O in ONE (if I have that right) is new to me. The one running from the S to the O is uncommon in that location, too.

I'm guessing you would have found any of the larger cracks and breaks which characterize the known 1921 VAM's, so what we're probably looking at here are, at best, EDS versions of existing VAM's. I'm still interested in them, however, because the very worst that can happen is to build on the existing knowledgebase of die progressions. So, I'm going to be archiving your shots (I have over 500MB of my own pics of 1921's only), and you'd be doing a service if you could come up with full shots of the obverse and reverse of these coins.

Both of your coins are covered in cracks, and many of the known 1921 VAM's are the direct result of die cracking being allowed to progress. Therefore, it's very likely that these are both EDS versions of something.
