Would you be interested in having "curators" for different sections of the museum? Ex. Mark Stilson curates the Morgan section. I curate the Peace dollar section. Etc. Then we can add our own expertise (VAMs, patterns, etc) to the museum.
Thanks to everyone for their help in choosing a new id. I have mailed the prizes to the winners this afternoon. So when my new id (now Art2) gets to 56789 or maybe 45678 posts they'll be another contest like this.
I have most certainly changed my mind on this. I really enjoy the Roosevelts and especially find the PRDCAM coins attractive. Over time things can change, even me.
Here's the same coin from my flicr files at a higher resolution. I think it looks much better.

I have never had any luck in searching dimes or quarters. Not a single silver hit. Halfs are good to me. Nickels never produced much -- I do intent to try them again. Maybe I'll get a bunch tomorrow.
I had some "Reveal" bulbs that were pretty good for photography in that they were close to daylight temps. Never found them to be much different than the others I used in that all still need some white balance adjustment. Of course with film you could do filtering but man that's quite a hassle.
Here's a nice full-stop Jefferson from my collection.
It's hard to tell much from this picture. I'll load a larger higher res image to flickr later today.
