___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

You also agree to follow these guidelines. You must agree to these rules to be a member of this forum. NO SPAM! Spam is deleted within minutes, no spam will ever be left in our community.

1. Post a front and back image of your coin with a specific question about what you’re seeing or asking about and one coin per topic.

2. Please remove coin from the holder unless it’s US or an official mint case or unless it is graded by a grading service.

3. Images should be taken by a camera or cell phone camera, we ask that members don’t use images through a microscope screen.

4. Always start your own topic, please don’t ask about your coin or post your coin in someone else’s coin topic.

5. Do not send private messages about your coin unless an Admin ask you too and the same for sending emails through the board.

6. No spam. Do not post any links to your coin or other non-coin websites.

7. Always be respectful even if something makes you upset or you don’t agree with a member. You can always get a second opinion elsewhere. If you have an issue then politely ask an admin in an PM. PM’s are for issues, technical and personal, but not for coin questions (refer to number 5 on this list). Our community is not a soap box for complaining or drama, so please refrain from doing so here.[/size]

How To Post Images, Questions & Make a Meaningful Title In This Community

#1 Unread post by Daniel »

When you're posting in this forum remember these things:
  • Start your own topic, so please don't post your coin or question in another person's topic.
  • Remove your coin from the holder.
  • Post ONLY one coin per topic, we don't need comparison images.
  • Crop your image and take as clear of an image as possible.
  • Don't post camera pictures of microscope screens - these are pixellated and hide details when zoomed in* SEE BELOW to find out how (after video link).
  • You need to post post (1) a full OBV picture, (2) a full REV picture, (3) and picture(s) of the area on your coin you are asking about).
  • Also be descriptive in your title AND question about your coin. Include date, mint, coin type, denomination and the specific characteristic on the coin that prompted you to ask your question.
  • Lastly, please watch the video below!


The video shows how to attach only 1 photo. Use the same method but select
all 3 of your photos when posting a question.





*Connect microscope to your computer and use a screenshot, or your microscope should have a memory card slot to save/transfer to your computer to then take a screenshot.
