Coins of the world photographed in amazing detail

[madfranks]

This is definitely neat, you pick the coin you want to look at, and can zoom in quite close to the infinitesimal details of the coin's surface. The actual images are 400 million pixels apiece.

Nice find! It would have been cool to see the dollar coins instead of just pennies or cents.

Or at least one silver or gold coin.

It is cool, but I'd rather see him focus on another currency

Definitely a beautiful coin! I would love to have one in my collection.

it's not a coin, but, if i had an extra $24,000, i would like a Penoles bar -

i think they have the most beautiful 1000 ounce bar. it could just be the photograph though.

personally i would like one on the dining room table, though it would probably get moved. 70 pounds of Silver.
