It's kind of hard for me to say, but if I had a single coin that I was to keep and all the others were togo away, I'd keep my 1913-S buff. (See attachment).

Probably one of these or maybe all of these? Yes thats it these as a set

[BillJones]

The coin that is pictured with this message is one of them. It was the first high grade early coin I purchased, and it was the seed that got me started on early U.S. coins. It's an 1805 dime with the 4 berry reverse. Currently it's in a PCGS AU-58 holder. I've owned this coin for over 30 years.

The eagle on Boilers top pattern is bad. You can tell that eagle means business. Nice coin. This coin is being mailed to me.

It is my current favorite.

wow!!!!!!! guys all amazing coins

 

 

 

what makes so far all the coins in the scans is

 

extraordinary eye appeal that is the key and all the coins pictured here on this thread got it

 

they got the "look"

 

these are coins that the market will always want and apprecaite and getting harder and harder to find

This is always a tough decision, but right now it would be one of these two half dimes:

 

 

 

BC

[michael]

wow both coins are totally original great eye appealing coins beryl

 

 

the bottem capped bust half dime is really uncommon with this look !!

 

the seated halfdime is really way above average for coins of this type!!

i love the half dimes myself!! in my opinion the capped bust halfdimes are one of the most undervalued coins from circ. to gem!

[pmh1nic]

One of these three

 

1962 Franklin

1892 Barber Quarter

1819/8 Bust Half

[mdwoods]

I'm no Barber expert but that looks like a really nice strike on that Barber quarter. Nice.

There are a lot that I like, but for now, I think I'll go with this SLQ- I've had it for over 6 years (one of my first non-wheaties), and think it is the epitome of collecting circulated type coins...

My all time favorite coin. I love the simple design.

 

 

[Leothelion]

And I repeat, " Why don't we have a "COIN GALLERY" forum?

Very nice coins everyone!

And Greg, a coin like that shouldn't really exist with a strike like that!

I know and one day when I decide I would rather own a coin instead of a house, that one will be mine.

 

The most amazing thing about the coin I pictured is that the planchet appears nice and problem free.

I was careful using the phrase, "your coin". I also had the passing thought that my 1799 cost me $550 and your coin costing $550,000?

 

Whose coin is it, Mr Mint himself?

The coin was from coinfacts.com They didn't say the grade or who owned it. They did say the picture was courtesy of Heritage and I believe it is the MS67BN example.

You'd better watch your stash!

 

Hey Greg - If you ever buy one of those, I'll know you have no other coins!
