I've been planning to pull mine out tonight and take a few pictures. If I get those taken, I will have the pics uploaded no later than noon tomorrow, if all goes well
Can't speak for anyone else but I'm looking forward to seeing your collection and have been since you posted you would post pics of your collection (queue Bromance meme ). To me coins and their history are extremely interesting and make for a great hobby.

Just as a heads up to those in BR or near the EBR area, there's going to be a coin show at the Holiday Inn on airline near near the interstate on February 9 & 10 (Saturday & Sunday) where you'll be able to buy & sell coins as well as get your coins 'graded'. I've read one place that said the show was 8, 9 &10 but one that said it was on 9 & 10 but I did read that its supposed to be the first one in BR in 25 years. Personally I've never been to a coin show myself but seeing as how I grew up on comic books and sports cards in the late 80's through mid 90's, I'm looking forward to it. I used to go to the same Holiday Inn for comic/card shows when I was younger and it almost makes me feel like a kid again, but this time with coins, things that hold their value and I can actually buy things this time

1987 Silver Eagle:
1922 S Peace Dollar:
1922 Painted Peace Dollar:

1884 O Morgan Dollar:
More Morgans' between 1884-1901
Assortment of Silver half dollars, silver quarter, buffalo nickel, and steel pennies:
