Pepactonius - Love them, those dollars bring back warm memories, especially the Peace dollar. I remember the story about the Liberty - a joke was she looked like a frazzled phone exchange worker screaming "That line is BIZZAY" in some book about American coin history.
Like with the the Barber and Morgan coins - the Liberty was based on the designer's wife and the name of him escapes me but it was something Italian.
My last coin is another British penny (Surprise surprise, but if it helps my pennies get nastier before the 1910s and I won't show unless they are really rare dates or nice examples)
There is something about Britannia pennies that just attracts me back to them over and over again. And it generally really cheap to buy them as well.
