I helped set up a new blog for a first-time blogger today, and took a few (OK, about 130) photos to help get it started. Here’s one of them, my favorite coin out of the ones I photographed today. You can go check the blog A Faustian Collection for more info (including the obverse face) about the coin, but all I’ll say is how impressive the mirror finish was. That’s my face and lens you can see reflected in it above. I wasn’t allowed to touch – he handled them with gloves.
