The proof and uncirculated 1982 Washington Half Dollars because they were the first two commemorative coins I purchased. I bought them from the mint in 1982 and they now reside in my 7070. I am also fond of my 1990 Eisenhower dollar; also purchased from the mint as part of the 1990 Prestige Set.  |

My 1892 Columbus, even though it is slightly worn, it has a nice color to it. And, it was my first one.

My first commem was a Columbian Exposition. It will always be special, but I think my favorite is my Long Island Half. I have some modern commems that I like, the Congress and Rushmore but not the same as the older ones.

I don't have a favorite one, but my favorite few are the 1918 Illinois Centennial and the 1925 Stone Mountain. For modern the 1994 POW and the 1994 Women in Military.

I vote for the 2008 Bald Eagle Commemoratives. I like all of the designs. It also reminds me of good times fishing in Minnesota watching bald eagles in the wild.

My favorite is the San Diego-California Pacific International Exposition half dollar. It is a good looking design, and commemorates my home town. The examples that I see usually have a lot of mint luster on them, something that I am a sucker for.

My favorite US commemorative has to be the Jamestown $5.00 Gold Proof.
