And wow, that was a real generous offer from your side, but unfortunately I'm not from US and the customs duties here in India are a lot too.

We have several customers from India, and we've sent all sizes of packages to them. If the coin is inside a simple envelope, such as a yellow 7x4" bubble mailer, with a short letter / card /note inside, then it'll post for about $3-5 USD to India and arrive within 7-10 days. Maybe if you paid for the shipping? Just an idea...

I didn't quite get the bolded text part. Please elaborate sir.

Sent you a PM.

I am thinking of photoshop-ing some pics back from my vacations because they highlight the Nature theme.

Technically speaking, if the envelope is sent as a letter as opposed to package, then it should have some sort of letter, note, or card inside. That's all. Sky is correct, it's an international customs thing.

And that is a generous offer, Sky. Thank you.

Keep those photos coming, everyone!

It is all the same coin.
The bottom right (black one) was the result of much heat. Some of it rubbed off and gave a nice "tye-die" effect up close.
Not sure how the big black spot on upper right got there?? I originally was holding the coin with some tweezers, so maybe something on them transferred with all of the heat?
And.... this was all done with HEAT. I used a small torch I have on hand (http://www.target.com/p/bonjour-brushed-aluminum-chef-s-torch-with-fuel-gauge/-/A-16859914)

Thanks

Wow! they give some awesome colors on heating
They do look different and great!
Love the Black and Reddish one

That's really cool it looks like it went through a 19th century fire. I tried blasting one using a propane torch on high, but it just charred it and didn't work out well 

A slower & shorter heat gave me this, which is overall a bit nicer.. the back is sort of bland though, just darker like a normal, older US penny.

To make it easier during the public vote, please add titles to all your photos. (You can even title it something like "Untitled #5," if you'd like, as long as it has a title.)

Then during voting, we don't have to keep re-posting our favorite photos. We can simply write something like:

Technology -- minerjones -- "Mr. Robo-Raptor"
Miscellaneous -- defcon23 -- "Dancing Shiva"
Etc.

Sound good?

Regards,
Chris
