Great coins so far guys, lots of varieties, denominations and condition. Sometimes it's hard to decide a ranking but I would be proud of all of the coins so far and they will get better and better as we go along.

#11} Although my favorites are the Capped Bust half dollars, I never met a classic half I didn't like.

Number 11 was rescued from a bag of silver destine for the melting pot during the hunt brothers monopoly bid. How many more were sacrificed during that time?

Holy Dismo, muddler! That's quite the scrap find! I wish I could have afforded to search silver tubs during that crazy 1980's melt-down, but it was a terrible time economically and I could barely afford the basics of life.
I missed posting anything yesterday, so here are my #12 and #11. They're among my very few high grade classics, so the choice is not difficult, just the order of showing. The 1918 is in an old PCGS AU58 slab; the '17 was found raw at an estate sale.
I loove the randomness of this thread and the super quality of everyone's submissions.

SuperDave, can you come and photograph my coins, tremendous color on that Morgan.

Mysilveryears, I have drifted away from Standing Liberty quarters and focused on half dollars but yours really inspire me to take another look at this series.

Vermontensium and PG, The best V nickles I have ever seen!

jeffrose, I have a sister of that 1874 soon to be shown.

mayprince230 and Moe really nice large cents, thanks for showing.

Damn, asking me to pick out my twelve favorite coins and rank em? Well, I narrowed it down to the twelve finalists, but I'm afraid I'm gonna have to list them in alpha-numeric filename order since I love them all equally!

I missed yesterday, so here are coins #12 and #11:

#12 -- 1802 Draped Bust Large Cent
Not much to look at, perhaps, but it's my earliest coin.

12-Days-Of-Your-Favorite-Classics! 12-Days-Of-Your-Favorite-Classics!

#11 -- 1855 Seated Liberty Half Dollar
This has probably been cleaned and polished to heck and back, but it's still a beautiful coin with an amazing amount of detail.
