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:

One of my favorite "mysterious" coins in the collection, just because of the contemporary counterstamp... Although I still have no idea who exactly it represents. Probably from a merchant or a store owner from that time. I just like it somehow

#3: Half Penny Token, 1843 - Nova Scotia (Contemporary counterstamp stating: W. Mc K.B. ?)

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:
