Great idea that I hope generates some interest in these lovely and historical coins... sorry that I will out of contact on 11/11/11 ... we are leaving tomorrow for a vacation to Croatia.

I will be pleased upon my return to contribute some photos and descriptions from my classic silver commemorative set ...

In the spirit of contributing until I return ... I leave you with a photo of this coin as one of my top-10 favorites ...

nickelsearcher - enjoy your vacation, I know we will all be happy to see which coins you pick for your Top 10 ..But.. with all the nice coins you have .. I would think it will be hard to choose.

Trying to keep this fresh in the minds of the collectors out there, Friday 11-11 starts the top ten!

A good contender but not in the top ten 1995 p Gymnastics.

Here we are at 11/11/11. I am hoping we see a lot of nice coins, over the next 10 days.

Where my coins are all modern commemorative, I am thinking some members will have all classic or a mix of both.

For my number 10 coin it was hard to choose, so much so that I had a tie. I mean how could I choose between Ben Franklin or Thomas Edison. Franklin showed us what electricity was and Edison showed us how to use it.
(I know I am just talking in general, there was much more to it)

Franklin's coin came out in 2006. I picked the UNC coin with a mintage of 58,000

For Edison coin, it came out in 2004 to honor the 125th anniversary of the light bulb. I picked the UNC version with a mintage of 92,510.
