My favorite coin is probably this guy (or girl)...I got her a few years ago for $32, and it is graded by CCF at MS-64, which would make it worth around $75 perhaps.

This is a tough one since I don't really have a favorite. There are usually coins where I like the color, the way it looks generally, or is interesting. I like all my Barber quarters and Seated coins but like these for some reason:

Or how about the Morgans. See what I mean? So ... I will show these two. First, I'm a sucker for the circulated cameo look and second, both were roll searching finds in the mid fifties which helped solidify my interest in collecting.

Hard Impossible to pick a single favorite, but I am rather fond of the coin I use as my avatar:  1878 CC Morgan Dollar

Hey Zack.. don't know why I'm so attached. Just something about them that grabs me. I also have an affinity for large cents (all types) and others as well but the morgans just are my habit...

I would probably fall in love with Morgans if I had the money to afford it.

My favorites are the old coppers like the CT Colonial in my avatar. Among the old coppers I really can't say I have one favorite so here are a couple of today's favorites 1795 Lettered Edge Large Cent S-73 variety R5   1787 Fugio Newman 19-SS. Buying this coin inspired me to read a Benjamin Franklin biography. I love the history surrounding the old coins.

This one has come up in the past. I've never been able to figure out which coin I like best. One day it's a Mercury dime, then later it's an Indian Head cent, then the next day, I start all over.

I love them all! But here is the one that started it   Searching through coins I had laying around I finished a Jefferson nickel from 39 to 61. I'm down to needing one LWC - LMC from 09 to 95. So if anyone wants to donate to the cause  Thank you to all the help in answering my questions.

Cipster, that second coin is very Masonic looking.
