What's your Favourite U.S. Coin?
October 27, 2016, 11:34:40 PM
Although I am quite partial to Lincoln cents and there are plenty of nice designs,
I think my favourite would be my one and only Flying Eagle cent.

I've showed you mine, now you have to show be yours. :)

Very nice choice Erik.

There are so many great U.S. coins from the 1940's back. I don't know if I have a favorite individual coin in my collection. But my favorite series is the Walking Liberty Half dollar.

Sorry for the tiny pic. This is one of my prettiest Walkers, but you wouldn't be able to tell from how blurry the image was when I tried to enlarge it.

Yes, can't see much of that one Adam.
Nancy, that's a nice coin.
I'm seeing a pattern here - birds. :)

Liberty Seated coinage has a special interest for me. An 1861 half dollar was the first coin that remember that really caught my attention. Here is one of my current favorites ~ 1837 no stars half dime, the original design of Christian Gobrecht. I will be adding others as time permits.

Very nice, and the obverse has a few nice die cracks  ;)

I don't have one but a few as I like the 50 state and america the beautiful quarter sets and hope to complete it one day. Even though I only have a couple of each I also like buffalo and indian heads and the $1 with the moon and eagle and love the couple of proofs I got from a mate in Perth  :D

I wish our mint could make coins as well as some of the other countries.

A double eagle

for 50 years I have one that I handle freely when I feel down
It is my feel good coin

Where I am going I ain't certain
Where I am going I don't know
All I know is that I'am on my way

Ok but I hope you can master the knuckle roll
For me it is a bit heavy and large
I got small hands

No problems. I have big hands even if they are arthritic.
