January 21, 2010 I love old coins!! It’s like holding a bit of history in your hands, and they’re just plain cool to look at. Small pieces of artwork. This photograph showcases an 1878 Silver Dollar. Obviously I wasn’t going for a detailed shot here. With a wide aperature I’ve blurred out the back half of the coin. I simply wanted a simple photo of a coin tonight. Maybe on another day of this 365 project I’ll attempt a detail shot of this coin. Silver coins up to 6/17/10
Recovered while metal detecting in 2010. I did find a few others that are not included in this picture.
