PWA 1967

Yes, he is now, but closely connected to the IOM of course ... well could be anyone then! Er, Emerson Fittipaldi!? If you are reading this Emerson, please say Hi Interesting really,as someone like me who looks at this forum daily is always looking to learn. sometimes i look about 9.30 in the evening and see about 40 logged on. Would be nice if more people made a contribution with some comments. So people reading this please post . I dont know much but sure i could learn a lot more if you can please contribute. Seen that one the other week scott,good find. Pete.

He is in jersey paul i think and as far as i am aware not into collecting pennies

Hope you have not overlooked us . Big ex -formula 1 Driver penny collector in the isle of man and i cant financially compete with him. He reads the forum and would be nice if he got involved. Pete.

Bob you get some proper coins ,how about sending some back over here too the UK.

Yeah maybe its an early 1933.......Behave Bob.... LOL......

That sounds daft . The coins are in the UK but as i am in Spain most of the time they are kept at my daughters.

I have three and picked them up today as dont keep them in the UK and they are just normal.

Cant put the link up Matt but its 151877810619

Ten years ago coinery.

Happy birthday Paul and have a really good day.

Think the 1862 halfpenny date will be the one from the Tony crocker sale.

He came to my house Matt took all the picures ,then said he would put them all on a pen drive after editing some of the slabs out.

I could not agree more, how did your professional photographer get on, any results to share yet? He isnt a professional Paul just a keen amateur. Just a nice bloke who has retired and lives nearby,he took about 130 (ones i dont need to upgrade) and was sorting them out . Told him there was no rush so just wait to here back from him. They will certainly be better than having none

Sorry to disrupt the topic but the mhcoins site is quality. Nice website and fantastic pictures.

Yes i recognised the CGS one but thought you had done the others. Think the pictures if you sell any make a big difference and worth spending the time to get them right. Sure you will get them to a level you are happy with.

Big HAT OFF paul not only nice coins but nice pictures .

Thank you for your replies. I asked the question prior to a guy taking some pictures for me yesterday . Fortunately he has in his opinion already something that will do the job although when he told me all about it went over my head. I could not believe the amount of equipment they use just for a photo of a coin. He had tripods ,lights ,umbrellas,big silver sheild things and took over all the lounge for the afternoon. Pete.

That seems out of order ,although people must buy them .

Thats a long time Paulus to wait six weeks without them even starting.

You have got me with that one Gary ?.

I have never used any so wasnt sure. So i assume photoshop is something i can just download. Thanks Matt will have a look and give it ago.

They show up a lot more aswell Matt if the coin has good lustre.

The pictures are spot on its to just put around it if i have not explained myself very well. I notice some pictures have the slab chopped out with a background.

Thought my question was better put on here. I am currently having my collection photographed and all the raw coins are not a problem. Unfortunately quite a lot are in slabs and hoped someone could help advise me on any software to chop the plastic out. Thank you if anyone can help please. Pete.

Yes what i meant is the description they give it and the fact they grade the inner part and leave the rest. I understand now why ,never having bought one or even looked at them before i was aware of the error one you have. Will people look at Krause or just see it as a normal one i dont have a clue how many people know what X10 is. I assume your reliant on the auction company doing a full picture and putting it in the description. Good luck selling it and hope you get what you want .
