Then we have to clarify - do they have to be
a/ officially a part of one's collection, or
b/ can we post any coin that we have.

A good number of the Zincoln Cents I find going through rolls would be instant qualifiers for this thread. Many look like the surface of the Moon.

Is this limited to Canadian coins? as this is where this is posted or do you want this moved to another area?

Any coin will do. I remember seeing the owner of ICCS's collection he put together of coins for fun that were awful. Worn out, ugly super polished etc.

Yea, it's an Ike. It has been in my coin collection since I was around 15. Sadly, most of my collection was completely destroyed in a house fire....this is about the only coin I found after the fire.

BadThad- gah, I'm sorry to hear that that happened to your original collection. But out of curiosity, why do you hold onto the ike? Is it a sort of memorial to your first collection?

This one probably won't make the top five, but felt he deserved an honorable mention for service rendered, he's had a rough life!
