I love the two-headed chicken on this coin.

A collector can easily drown in all of the drool in this topic.
Ask any parent, "Who is your favorite child?"
"ALL of my kids are precious!" will be the response.
Do not ask me to choose. I won't!

My favorite. After sleeping on the ocean floor for 256 years, this beauty was brought to the surface by my good friend Stefan Sykora and carefully conserved. I am honored to have it residing in my collection.

Man, that's like asking me which of my children is my favorite (well, it would be if I actually had more than one child, but you know what I mean)...

My "favorite" changes on a regular basis, but this is probably my prettiest:

D0ubl3Eagle, I Never had a Seated dollar. Very sweet.
Barryg, you had to go and 'one up me' with a honey of a half.

Everybody, feel free to post a second favorite. Who's counting? With favorites like those, your second favorites should be killer too. Thanks for partaking in this thread.

I'll share one more of mine. This is one of my two pieces of sunken treasure from the wreck of the Concepcion 1641. Not the prettiest or the favorite coin but it does have the cool factor due to it's last known address.

This is my favourite, it is my only hammered coin from the modern era and looks like it has been well used in its life. Its a silver sixpence of Elizabeth the first, a coin that I always found attractive. Obviously there is a lot of history that went with Elizabeth; she defended against the Spanish armada and claimed she was married to England.
