Many of us collectors (and a number of non-collectors) carry around in our pockets or purses a "lucky" pocket piece. Many have received these from a relative that has long since passed on, or maybe it was just a coin that you picked up at a shop or show that you admired so much you just felt that you wanted to always have it with you. If you have one, what is your pocket piece? And, if you feel like sharing, tell us where it came from, who (if anybody) gave it to you, and what is it's attraction to you? If you have a camera, show it to us!
I came across this while searching banks for half dollars about 10 months or so ago. I love the lettering on the Type I reverse, and I just decided it would be a great pocket piece. Not as great as the 1822 half that I carried around for almost 15 years a long time ago (it was a sad day when I lost that!) but I still really like this coin.
