Here's the huge token I got today... I had to edit the color a little, it's quite shiny and showed up very dark on the scanner.

Wonder if there are any legitimate Bush Sr. tokens out there... that (plus your Taft dollar) would give us at least one coin or token for each president.

:lol: Yeah, I know. I'm thinking I will need to rescan this. Or maybe take a picture of it in natural light. It really is much better looking - both the coin and the portrait itself - than this scan shows.

Okay, so I scanned it again. Then I scanned it with something under it so it would slightly offset it from directly reflecting the light back into the imaging thingy in the scanner. Then I took probably 20 pictures. Nothing does this thing justice! It is SO reflective, I could not get anything worth looking at. So I "borrowed" an image... edited it so it would "comply" with the style of all the other pictures... and tried to upload it 5 times. It won't upload. So... now I'm back to the best of the photos I took. Oh well.

So which do you think is less terrible?

That's the one I tried to upload! Weird. I thought it was stalling because it had some sort of copyright problem. I was just trying to come up with SOME reason why it would do that. Anyway... :roll:
