Crikey! That's a difficult question. I haven't seen every coin in the world, but in my collection, I quite like this one... 5 Krooni from Estonia.   Steve  |

WoW, that's a looker!
I did a Google search on that a while back...and the 1910 "Caballito" Mexican one peso came up as a candidate along with walking liberty and the double eagle...

I like the odd shaped ones, Something different to look at and hold. I'll post a pic once I get a chance. Nice coin by the way.

5 Krooni from Estonia. I like that coin too. I picked my own piece directly from the Estonian Central Bank two years ago because I have never seen it in circulation. Some of the coins before soviet occupation were quite impressive too  Edited by Eurocoin

It's very hard to pick from all world coins but from my collection it would be: Portugal. Brazil mint, 1763 AV 6400 Reis (4 Escudos) co-called Half Johhana   |

This one:  Typically, I can't find it now. This is why the photo is copied from Omnicoin  |

The Eritrea Tallero..  Mine doesn't look quite as good as that one (from a Heritage auction).. I'd have put a pic of mine up but it's put away and I don't have any pictures of her yet. |

That modern Estonian coin is impressively tasteful  And that Talero is just beautiful...wow!  Hard for me to pick just one coin, but I do like this for purely aesthetic reasons. Btw, the edge treatment resembles a medal.  Edited by DVCollector

I have a small collection of world coins but I think the design of the obverse of this one is really nice. This is a naturally toned coin that some won't like but I do. 1918 French 2 Francs   |
