I'm a genealogist and my family's historian with thousands of scans of original family photos, letters and documents going back to 1839 and prior in a few cases.
I referred to the national archive and their recommended standards. Somewhere they have recommended file formats, resolutions, etc. for documents and photos as well. Their intent is for preservation over long periods to avoid any inpacts due changing digital systems in the future. Excellent resource and advice. |

#4 in the Canadian W Mint Mark Tribute series. The previous being the polar bear toonie, the loonie, and the coat of arms 50 cent piece. Now getting down to the Caribou who looks like he is caught in the head lights. Silver 1 oz "Tailored specimen" finish.

Next up is my favorite, the Bluenose ten cent piece. Can't wait for that one! |

Quote: Good luck with your new endeavor - post results if you can. I just purchased the 2017 P George Rogers Clark coin, so will get that in a week or so. There are total 56 ATB 5 oz coins, I believe, and they come in two flavors - the uncirculated (no mint mark) bullion strike and the matte finish (burnished) collectors version with the P mint mark. I am a fan of the matte finish, so that will be my pursuit. It's going to be a long term collecting pursuit for me, otherwise I'll have no budget for other stuff. Going to take up storage space, but, oh boy, are they fun to hold! |
