NathanASE Pillar of the Community United States 1511 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 6:03 pm Absolutely the Morgan.. Followed closely by the Seated series (all denominations). I also really like Liberty head $5 golds, though I only have a couple.. Report this Post to the Staff
solotime Pillar of the Community United States 2311 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 6:04 pm I like the Buffalo nickel. To be honest, I don't really care much about the first type of the Standing Liberty quarter. Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 6:07 pm Odd no one mentioned the Mercury dime. I do think I like the Walking Liberty half dollar best but closely followed by the Mercury dime. I'm on Album #12 of Mercury dimes. Couldn't do that with most other coins.

jack jeckel Pillar of the Community United States 5208 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 6:32 pm Quote: I guess I would have to put Walking Liberty half dollars at the top of my list. The fuller the strike the better. I feel the ASE has cheapened the memory of the Walker halves series. Report this Post to the Staff
cipster Pillar of the Community United States 2362 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 6:56 pm In my opinion, Walking half dollars are the most beautiful coins ever minted, but I don't collect them. Somehow I am attracted to bust half dollars and those really ugly 179X large cents. When I hold one of these in hand it's a history lesson. Member ANA and EAC "You got to lose to know how to win".

yhbearcats Pillar of the Community United States 688 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 7:04 pm You can also mark me down for the Capped Bust half dollars Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15466 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 7:12 pm Hopefully everyone is willing to expand their horizons and at least consider the classic silver commemorative series. I have many favorites there ... and my dual MS/circulated set provides plenty of opportunity to show a few ... I'll go with one each as my current favorites: 1937 Battle of Antietam Anniversary Half Dollar PCGS MS67/CAC And ... in the world of circulated classic commemorative .. 1936 Battle of Gettysburg Anniversary Half Dollar PCGS VG10 Enjoy David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 8:34 pm Some classic US coins precede the US Mint, you know. Fugio copper for me. Report this Post to the Staff
Nathancrh1 Pillar of the Community Canada 785 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 9:38 pm Hmmm, I like Morgan's, WLH's, and (although I don't own one) the $4 "Stella" If I had to pick one it would have to be the Walking Liberty half dollar. Unlike many coins both sides are gorgeous! Report this Post to the Staff
CSOTUS Pillar of the Community 1153 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 9:40 pm My favorite specific coin is an 1853 SLQ with rays. My favorite coin design is currently the Peace dollar, followed closely by the Capped Bust half dollar. Report this Post to the Staff

Fatman Valued Member United States 362 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 10:33 pm Just look at her. How could anyone pick anything but this? The history, the intricate attention to detail, the grandeur. I think it's time to go hug my Morgans. Report this Post to the Staff
westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 09/15/2013 10:40 pm I've got to go with my beloved Two Cent Piece. But aesthetically speaking the Saint Gauden's Double Eagle and Walking Liberty half sure are beautiful coins. Also 1793 Large cents in high grade, just because of the design and the look of a 200+ year old coin in great condition. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R.
