I'm going with the 2005 US Marine Corps coin. Not just because I happen to be a former Marine, but that design is simple yet gorgeous. I could still do without all of the mandated words though. They seem to just clutter up really nice designs.

commeratives have been my passion for decades. having grown up in Oregon the Oregon trail remains one of my favorites from the early halfs. Of the modern coins the 1999 dolly Madison stands out as one of my favorite designs, great detail.

Wow...Great subject and some super coins pictured. My favorite is the Oregon trail as far as classics go. As far as Moderns I love to look at my High Relief St Gaudens. Only thing is the Mint used so much boxing and packaging it takes forever to get it out and back in again !

Mine is the 1926 Stone Mountain Memorial half dollar. I like the design, the actual monument, and the story about the coin. And I drive by Stone Mountain often.

I'm fond of the World War II history. So far this one is my favorite. I'm hoping to acquire the 1991-1995 World War II Clad half dollar. It is the 50th Anniversary coin. If anyone has seen this coin, I think they would agree that it is spectacular!

Thank you jbuck! After looking at the picture again that I posted, I realize now that I should have cleaned the dust off it!

No problem. Dust is a fact of life.  By the way (as I mentioned on page one), I have that Dollar in a 1990 Prestige Proof Set. I say this again because some people may have forgotten it.
