and My Five Least Favorite Coins

Regular issues only.

For some reason, I was unable to sleep last night and I started thinking about coin designs again. Although the list changed quite frequently, I did finally make my list. So here goes.

Most Favorite Coin Series:

1. Mercury Dimes

2. Peace Dollars

3. Lincoln Cents (Pre 1959)

4. Walking Liberty Halfs

5. Sacagawea Dollars (Native American Theme Reverses)

Okay, 5 is a bit of a fudge as they change every year but I love the Obverse of the Sacagawea and I am fully onboard with the Reverse concept.

Least Favorite:

1. Susan B. Anthony Dollars

2. Roosevelt Dimes

3. Washington Quarters (pre 1999)

4. Eisenhower Dollars

5. Silver 3-Cents.

I betcha you all have your own list in your mind. In my case, the list does have some parallel to my registry sets although Franklin Halves almost made my Bottom 5 list and I do collect them.

For me, collecting is sometimes a pure joy and sometimes just another example of my obsessive need to complete things (the Franklin set).
