Here is one of my fav's. It was given to me by my auto mechanic. He also has a garage that services big rigs and had towed one in that was in an accident. He picked up about a 5gal bucket full of these out of the trailer. Nebraska Quarter (Waffled)  |

Another favorite of mine. Picked this one from a large bag of Morgans and Peace dollars a dealer had at one of the area shows. I bought a bunch of stuff from the bag, and during the several hours of talking to the guy while I searched the bag I came across this one. It is a little rough, but I got it for either $12.50 or $13.50 I can't remember exactly. Silver was still cheap and the guy cut me a brake because we were both retired military.

It is just about impossible to narrow down to a single favourite coin. :( So, here's a couple of mine: The ever popular 1925 1 penny coin.   A little half ounce of silver, colourized.  My best 1910 threepence. I think it has lovely toning to it.   An 1952 Half Penny with delicious toning.   |

My favourite design on an Aussie coin is the Ram's head..   _Ram_s_Head__1.jpg) My favourite coin, in my collection, is the 2007 SAS Silver $1. Mainly because I had an invite from Perth Mint to attend the release of this coin at Campbell Barrack in Perth.  Steve  Edited by triggersmob

Thank you aarong. :) Just remember, my 1925 penny cost a little more than yours did. Most collectors don't get great coins for free!

This is my favourite coin, I just love the eye appeal of it and the fact that something 100 years old has obviously been taken care of by someone for that long.  |
