This isn't a coin, but it is very much my current favorite...it's a 1904 Zurich Swiss shooting medal. (Sorry for the crummy photos.)

Very attractive bust on that medal... I always like to see helmeted portraits on coins :

As to my favourite... well its very hard to choose but I have 1 odd tudor coin in my collection which is by no means the most valuable but for some reason seems special to me.

Its a silver sixpence from Elizabeth I... a hammered coin that is old enough to be a relic yet young enough to be from recent history.

Thanks! This medal is extremely hard to get a hold of (ant cheap either!) and I just fell in love with the design. So when one became available, it wasn't too had of a decision.

I can't quite make out the date on that one...15?....

My favorite coin is probably my 1855 $1 Type II. However, it is really more of a tie between 3, the gold $1, my 1857 Flying Eagle and my 20 Franc Gold Rooster.
The gold rooster is perhaps one of the most beautiful coins every designed, at least in my opinion. The gold $1 Type II and the Flying Eagle are my favorite two US coin designs and either one is my favorite depending on the day.
