I figured "Your Favorite Coin" would be too tough to choose for most so I made it Five! 1: 2000 $1 Sacagawea dollar Obverse Capped Die NGC MS66:     My Favorite piece, it's Unique and the Eye Appeal is just Extraordinary, at least 50-75 Strikes!!! 2: 1999-P $1 Susan B. Anthony dollar Struck on Experimental Planchet 25% Zn, 2.5% Ni, 72% Cu 7.73 grams PCGS MS-66:    I'm happy I was able to find one with the Greenish tint to it! 3: 1976 $1 Eisenhower dollar Struck 95% Off Center NGC MS66:     Only IKE I know this far Off-Center! 4: $5 Tenth-Ounce Gold Eagle Type One Blank SEGS 3.33 Grams:    Have only seen one other. 5: ? Coming Soon...? **RUNNER UP** 6: 1999-D 10C Roosevelt dime Missing Obverse Clad Layer (1.8g) PCGS MS64:    This is one of my Favorite Missing Clad Layer pieces as it's color is just Gorgeous!! #5 is Coming soon! I'll be sending all of these Errors to PCGS for Crossovers and a Re-holder as many have scuffs and scratches, except the Dime.

NumisRob, it's not about being all Spectacular, it's really whatever you deem as favorites in your collection, value doesn't matter. I also wanted to see what some of you own.

Thanks Vorpaledged! I only realised after posting that this was in the US coins section so hope nobody minds seeing a few UK errors!

1988-D Jefferson nickel die clash. A very strong Jefferson nickel die clash that I found while coin roll hunting.   1925-S Buffalo nickel die clash. Almost the entire word Pluribus is readable, and the buffalo clash covers the entire obverse, with the hump behind the feathers and the space between the legs clashed in front of the eyes. Hunted raw on ebay. 1941 Washington quarter with Re-Engraved Leaves (RED-001). An unusual coin that I hunted for several months on ebay before finding success. I don't know that re-engraving counts as a mint error because it was deliberate, but it's a rare coin with great colors.  1963 Proof Nickel with Lamination. I really like this proof nickel with a rim-to-rim lamination. It's unusual to find laminations of that length on proofs and cupronickel coins.  I have a number of other relatively minor mint errors in my collection—a handful of curved clip nickels, various coins with laminations, some recent quarter die clashes, a few proofs struck through threads. Mostly what I collect are doubled dies and mint mark varieties. Certainly my mint errors are not as impressive as others on this thread, you guys must be quite proud of your fine collections!

Nice errors so far!  Thank you, Vorpaledged!  I might post some more later if that's okay.
