Ends in about 50 minutes

Hi Chris,

I think its about time you got some nice new holos.

#1 or 2 looks best to me, though #2 looks straight out of Casascius.

I'll get a coin if it has a new holo like these.

Auction ends today in about 9 hours.

#1 Coin received today!!

8/10

The quality was nice, but coin seems to have been handled some.
Significant scratching on the gilt around the rim of the coin.
Plus missing some gilt / large scratch next to the "Ripple" coin..... Huh

While I cannot show the back of the coin at the moment, there was some embedded dirt in the lettering....

Just my 2 satoshi.... thanks Cheesy

Maybe it's due to the pics taken? The OP seemed to use the #1 coin for pics. Shame it's not mint.

small table behind the window on a not sunny day, tripod, Canon 5DII with Lens Canon EF 100mm 1:2,8 L IS Macro USM. and a bit "brushed" with Lightroom.
It was my idea to get the details as good as possible and not to have the most colorful and shiny picture.

Nice setup. Very similar to mine. I also use Lightroom too

You can remove me from the group buy because Gravitate (accidently) sent them directly to me.

Same here.

Ok for the bronze coins I can take them back and refund. I asked them to silver plate the bullet and they came fully plated. The difference in material is obvious from the plating defects on the bronze ones. I probably should have mentioned it before posting out but I was quite behind on some orders so I just tried to get them out. My fault really. So returns are accepted on these no problem at all.
That's me taking a gamble too as I might not get back the winning coin.

Thanks. I sent a PM now to you.

Hi there I am with out my Internet at the moment apart from my phone. One is bronze but silver plated and the other is silver with no plate. I didn't actually weigh the coins I just did the silver spot test on the silver one and measured the size. I will be online again tomorrow I hope to explain more.

I'm probably speaking for myself, but had I known they would look the same visually, I wouldnt have bought both. I bought them thinking one would be bronze in color.

Nice 2nd pic of the front fvs114. Yes, the front is very hard to capture due to its shiny surface. You did a great job.

As an obsessive collector, I'm feeling torn between buying everything made and quitting soon because it's getting too expensive to keep up with it all. I wish Microsoul would stop with so many new coins lately. This year my new purchases seem to be almost all from them.

I didnt take too many pics of Microsoul for the Encyclopedia, since elianite had many of those. The following are all uncropped, so you'll see the outer parts of the coin holders.

Here are some other nice shots of my other makers coins I took to show the kind of pics I can take. Again these are all in the Encyclopedia, as I took about 1/2 the pictures for it:

Reminds me of the Statue of Liberty, at least from the top. Grin

I appreciate something different than the usual.
