    I vote for the seated lib design over ALL others.
    I even have my 10 Indians up for auction.

    They got to be "slide up and .....meh" in their box.

    EARLY gold...different story. :)
  • It's really hard for me to pick a favorite. I can't decide.
  • Walking Liberty Half
  • I agree that the Walking Liberty Half is the most beautiful 20th century silver coin without a question followed closely by the Mercury Dime.
  • I’m really liking this design and the Classic Head too


  • My vote goes to the Seated Lib design. Preferably dollar sized without motto.
  • I seem to love Flowing Hair Dollars!

    For me, it will always be the Type 1 Buffalo nickel:



    Edit: I see that I posted to this thread in December. At least I am consistent!
  • Trade Dollars!!

  • My favorite is the BLP $5.  Buffalo nickel a close 2nd.  
  • I know I posted the Walking Liberty Half Dollar earlier, but the St. Gaudens High Relief is one of my favorites too. The trouble is it's too expensive for most collectors to add to their holdings.



    And the Draped Bust coinage has had my attention since I was in high school.

    That’s a real nice looking coin there.   I like them too !   
  • If not restricted to US coins, I'll pick the Comoros crown.

    Well its a neat coin for sure .   I used to have a ton of foreign coins I collected during my years working abroad.  6 years in the Middle East was one area that I collected a lot.

     Daughter has the collection now.     Although I sold most all my foreign gold.   Looking back now I should have just kept everything I suppose …🤦🏻‍♂️🙈
  • Can't decide between these two.
