2004-P $1 Edison - Probably my favorite - His work has touched more people than Jesus.
2003-P $1 First Flight - What can I say. They deserved recognition!
2009-P $1 Louis Braile - WELL DONE!
2008-S 50C Bald Eagle - One of the top designs of all times!
1986-W $5 Statue Of Liberty - All time favorite gold coin!

First try at posting photos. #1 is Sherman's Monument in NYC Central Park by St. Gaudens #2 is his model for the $20.00 gold piece, Sherman's Monument and other works. It is thought she was his lover also. Can not blame him!

I have to agree with Moe on the "worst" with the baby eaglets featured.
That is just NOT a good looking reverse !

But that 2008 Proof Bald Eagle 1 oz. Silver is still one of the best IMHO ! LUV THAT COIN !.....

It takes all kinds; I love the baby eaglets.

But my favorite commemorative is one with a ship. And it's the cheapest one listed yet:

Mine has to be the 2006 Benjamin Franklin Founding Father Silver Dollar.
Ol'Ben would be proud.

Am I the only one that likes the good old fasioned Washington? Nice young portrait of George on the obverse, and a good job on Mt. Vernon on the other.
