Nice pics, Steve.  This is how I imagine you after you photograph your coins and add them to your online gallery!

I like the look of the 1958 Canadian Silver Dollar with the totem pole on it. Nice picture of the triggersvault too  :)

Just some info on the 1958 Canadian dollar. The design shows a totem pole section with mountains in the background.The top element of the totem is a raven, used by some Indians to symbolize death. As a result, it was rumored that those Indians disliked the dollar, causing them to be called "death dollars". So Steve, you have a "Death Dollar", and although they had 3.04 million of them minted. It's highly sought in the U S and being 57 yrs old and 80% silver, I see why.
