I have always liked the Portuguese 50 Centavos.

I like the way they look as they wear with age.

I've had ths 1795 cent around for quite a while. I'd like to upgrade it, but prices have gone way up and most everything available shows worse corrosion or pitting.

I would like to have one Oregon Trail 50C. On what I have, I like all the 50C and dollar size silvers. Of course, half Eagles are my other favorite.

Be careful, chasinva. You better get a safe now, I am coming to get that Indian Chef. Which one you like the most? I like this one the best. I just have a Stone mountain one, which is safely locked in my Safe.

ps, what is you address?

I only have two commemorative half-dollars right now -- the 1925 California Diamond Jubilee and the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition. I will post their pics. I really want to get the Grant Memorial, Antietam, Gettysburg and 1927 Vermont commemoratives, but they're all a tad pricey. My Oregon Trail is the 1926 issue. There were several of these issued. I belive the 1939 version is the most valuable.

Chasinva:

The eagle on the Rev is almost copy of Morgan dollar. If I remember correctly, it was designed by Morgan. Nice coin!


SuperDave: Which one is your giveaway coin?

This is and always will be my Favorite Coin.
Over the years there have been a few that have come close to taking its place but as it was this coin that changed my habits from hoarding to collecting its going to take a lot to knock it off the Favorite list.
When ever I see one in need of a new home I try to add it to my growing collection.

I know what you mean Richard. I have more than a few of these laying around thanks to my inability to leave them at the coin dealer.
