Yup, a 1921 Morgan that I got at a flea market a long time ago when I was still in South Carolina.

Then... many of our members here graded it as AU55 and now I carry a cheap EF 1921 D Morgan I got off of ebay

I did have a 1974 IKE that I carried around for several weeks....but lost it.

I actually think it may have fell out of my pocket while riding the motorcycle one day.

I always seem to have something in my pockets that gets carried around for weeks or months. Eventually, one of my kids will get a hold of it and pop it in their piggy banks. Right now, I have a polished British penny from 1913 that I think could benefit from a little time in-pocket.

I carry a 1910 GB Florin. My favourite coin. 1910 was the year my Grandad was born, it was he who started me collecting coins. The standing Britannia from it is my avatar.

The 1889-O Morgan I received in trade.

Just kidding, though I wanted to ask - why do you carry them as pocket pieces? Could someone explain that to me? I haven't heard of this phenomenon over here.

1877 Seated Half that was a sea-salvage. Makes a good golfball marker, but I have to chase it down alot after my playing partners pick it up.

Right now, I am carrying a " Two Cent euro" from Belgium that I found coin roll hunting cents. It is 2007, but I find it interesting as I have never seen one.

I used to carry an Eisenhower dollar (1976) for many years, but stopped when I almost lost it one night. I have been considering carrying one again.
