Moe145 Pillar of the Community United States 8904 Posts	Posted 05/13/2009 8:49 pm Yo Ratman4762! I agree with you %1000! I wish I had checked my Seated Liberty Halfs before I declared the Quarter the winner! Bad on ME! Here's my 1853 New Orleans mint Half: Once again, the Obverse is nothing to be overwhelmed about... (obviously in my opinion...) And surprising the same Dollar coin of the era was MUCH less inspiring: Edited by Moe145 05/13/2009 8:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff

They really like the design since it shows what they know about US....the Eagle and the moon landings. Kena, the Ike dollar reverse is in my top five as well. I like eagles so all the coins with the best pictures of the eagle rate good with me. Report this Post to the Staff
sfwusc Pillar of the Community United States 615 Posts	Posted 05/14/2009 11:09 am I will have to vote for the Mercury dime and Walking Liberty half. You get those coins in AU+ condition and they are amazing. They are kind of dull in G4-F12 condition. -SFWUSC Report this Post to the Staff
Napoleon31ft Pillar of the Community United States 528 Posts	Posted 05/14/2009 3:06 pm All of the coins are so common My favorites are definitely: $20 St. Gaudens Gobrecht dollar with starts on reverse Draped Bust Dollars Seated Series Proof Barbers And there is just something about the Bar cent. lol Report this Post to the Staff

clembo Valued Member United States 442 Posts	Posted 05/14/2009 7:55 pm Sorry no pics but just about anything is better than the designs found on modern coinage. BORING! Report this Post to the Staff
yotie Pillar of the Community United States 3077 Posts	Posted 05/14/2009 9:31 pm i like the Peace Obverse I was surpzide on how many dont care for her Report this Post to the Staff
sfwusc Pillar of the Community United States 615 Posts	Posted 05/14/2009 11:31 pm Yea Yotie... I am going to say ... Boo to the Peace. Reverse is cool, but I like the eagle reverse... The Washington quarter eagle sucks though. -SFWUSC Report this Post to the Staff

weerdsteev Pillar of the Community United States 1291 Posts	Posted 05/16/2009 12:27 am Despite spending 95% of my time with Buffalo nickels, my favorite design is the Standing Liberty quarter, even if the reverse IS rather plain. My least favorite design is the Ick Dollar.... errr... Ike dollar. The Liberty Walking Half is a close second! Report this Post to the Staff
hawk1969 Valued Member United States 82 Posts	Posted 05/30/2009 3:43 pm I will have to say it is a tie between the Mercury dime and liberty walking halve. The Standing Liberty quarter is a close third. I'm surprised the Standing quarter hasn't received more love. I think it's a great design. Report this Post to the Staff

It's just VERY tough to find nice examples of the coin since it wore so quickly and so badly (My opinion...obviously!) Report this Post to the Staff
sfwusc Pillar of the Community United States 615 Posts	Posted 05/30/2009 10:09 pm Yea I think that is what kills the Standing Liberty quarters... they are so worn for the most part that people don't get to see the real design. I also think that killed the Barber coins as well. I can't stand them bc I always saw worn examples. In AU/MS that are really nice coins. Report this Post to the Staff
