Oh, the gems are rolling in this a.m.! Gorgeous Vicky, stevex6! And I see a couple specimens I would snatch off the screen to stuff in my 7070 if that were possible!  For my # 9, I shall drag out an old copper that does not show up very often. Liberia, 1862 two cents, size= 35 mm:

Steve - you are making me wish I had been collecting those Vickys back in younger days. The coin shop I worked at got a lot of them in - being close to the border - but since the Whitman folder I bought back then started in 1937, that is all the farther back I collected Its a shame, I had access and did not take advantage of it. Most collectors around me did not care to collect the Canadian coins either, so I know I could have had some good quarters at a bargain. You sure have some nice coins  Tonight's submission... I have posted her in numerous threads before - but I cannot help it - I love this coin. When silver was so high last year a roll of 1960-1964 Roosevelts gotten from circulation (over the years) made her mine. Technically I have 5.00 into her:
