  1798 Draped Bust Cent. My only 18th-century coin. The only reason I got it was because I didn't think $34.00 was a bad deal. |

...If so, then I would humbly submit an idea for a "best of" thread where we dig a little deeper into the Colonials. I love this idea, HOWEVER, I do not know US Colonials very well at all and would not even begin to know how to set up the Thread Posting Schedule.  I do not mind if someone else wishes to host this next "Days of Colonials".  Any takers?  (I would be an avid watcher of this thread if it materializes.)  Meanwhile, the search continues!! What other ideas do you all have? What coins do we all want to see? Edited by Moe145

For a slight change, how about XX days of your favorite U.S. coin reference book sorted by the decade it was published. It would be a great way to let other collectors know about some good reference books, starting with the most current and going back to whenever they started.

You did not have a problem when we did this thread...  The 13 Days of Your Favorite Colonials and Post-Colonials!!I know, it was a top-13 rather than following dates. We could bump this thread to 130 days and follow that schedule of posting favorites. If 13 is too much, then maybe just ten if that would be better. Or we can just start another thread. Your call, Generalissi-Moe.  |

Any takers? I could do something like this one: http://goccf.com/t/269713&whichpage=1...except to stay within the "best of" theme, it could be that you just post your fave from each of the various types of colonials. If it is cool with you, I'd probably do it as a weekly change of coin type rather than daily to give folks a chance to catch up. Let me know what you think.
