While waiting on the new Dragons to be issued, I decided to practice my coin photography with a couple of shots.

BTW: Rumor has it that the upcoming Dragon coin will be very similar to the 2000 version but that there will be 2 dragons, mirror imaged. Still no one's talking about the release date though the past several year's Lunars have been issued in mid-September.

Tom, love your stuff as usual!
Have you photographed any Canadian Voyageur dollars?



Got some Canadian stuff including several silver proof sets, a few Canadian Lunars, and about 6 or 7 other types (not including Maples). I started collecting Canadian Lunars but got sidetracked by the Australian series (thank God).

Here's a loonie and a toonie and a Canadian Lunar

TomD,

Thank you for posting your awesome gold and silver pictures on GSUS and thank you for giving me the inspiration to take pictures of some of my silver art bars. :)
