I would like to recommend that we significantly expand our horizons and open the door to the unlimited world of non-US coins.
US coins have an extremely limited history comparatively speaking in light of the relatively young evolution of the US nation. Plus it seems like CCF has already adequately rehashed a majority of these coins in one way or another.
What about displaying one's top non-US coins covering a 100 year time span one week at a time starting at 500 - 600 AD, then 601 - 700 AD...thru. 1900 - 2015?
Some of the designs out there around the world are absolutely intriguing.
Also CCF has several seasoned international members capable of relaying the locally (non text book) historically significant stories behind the creation of these noteworthy coins.
That might be another suggestion, when applicable, for participants to implement: tying each featured coin to a significantly distinguished political figurehead and/or documented event etc.
This somewhat longer than usual compilation could evolve into one of the most interesting threads ever created by a much greater array of participating CCF members.
IMO
