These indices are primarily intended for my use as I build these pages.
These images are selectable to give a higher resolution image (typically 400 dots per inch) and a short description of the coin with comments on grading and scarcity. All of these images are at 200 dots per inch - which usually displays between 1 1/2 and 3 times life size on a display (depending, of course, on your resolution and display size) I have divided the index into 4 sections to improve their load times as they were becoming quite cumbersome for anybody on a slow link or with a lower spec machine. The indices still contain about 30-40 thumbnails each at an average size of 25K so each index is approadching 1MB of download. The linked images are genarally twice the resolution of the thumbnails and saved at a lower compression rate for enhanced detail so they are on average about 150K- 200K in size. The dot per inch (dpi) rate is always specified on the detail pages so proper size comparisons can be made.
Not all the images used on this site feature in the picture indices. Some images were only scanned in lower resolution for in-line use within the early version of the pages are are still in use today - but there are no higher resolution versions so they do not appear in the indices. I have a great many images of Irish coins which have not yet been used on the pages - if there is a coin you would like to see an image of - especially if it is one which is not yet represented in any form, then please send me an e-mail and I will attempt to put up an example of that coin (assuming I have an appropriate image, of course). |
