Oldest US coin I have is the first one a 1787 Fugio. I have a few State coppers that are a year or two earlier but they aren't US coins they're state coins. I have a 1773 Virginia half penny but that's a colonial coin.

A 1793 Large cent. I almost picked up a 1787 Fugio cent at the last coin show, perhaps next time.

Nice half-eagle, EarlyTurban! I have no pre-1834 gold in my type set yet, but I'm going to have to take the plunge at some point  .

Sadly my oldest is only an 1884 Morgan given to me by a friend, but I haven't been at this very long.
