I am in the mood to see some beautiful Penny's! The only criteria is that they be US and that they be in your collection. Any timeframe from 1793-2012 in any grade. They can be your favorite because of value, eye appeal, sentimental reasons or anything else!! POST AWAY!

Here are mine.
#1 This one needs no introduction. It speaks for itself. It marked the completion of my small cent collection from 1856 to present

#2 This one marked the completion of my 7070 type set in XF or better! Very tough coin, and one of the hardest ones to crack out of the slab.

#3 This one is not super high grade or high value. I just really like the look of this circulated key. The surfaces are the richest chocolate brown and so completely mark free for the grade of F12. I am thinking about upgrading my IHC to VF20 and above; but this one would really be tough to trade up for.

Just got this one in hand this morning and the photos aren't the best - but she's a beauty! It's special for me to know that at some point she probably shared space with five 1913 Liberty nickels... PG

Wow...some nice coins here!
Here's my favorite, an early copper.
It's an EDS of S-235, which isn't easy to find.

Here is my favourite penny. It's not graded, but I really like clean surface and toning. Coin is full of mint luster, pics did not show it.

Now this is my kind of thread!


My 1794 large cent (Dateless and dinged but great detail!)

Post-Your-3-Favorite-Pennys!!

I just acquired this one, some of you may remember my thread a week or two ago.

And I know you can't tell from the photos but this is the nicest toned coin I've seen in person, and it looks MS to me.
