How about the Irish halfpenny? The one with the pig on it?

When someone says ugly, I think of a couple of different ones. This is really a medal but boy it just doesn't get much worse. Behold the illustrious Montreal Police Commemorative!  Edit- Yes I know this probably wasn't the coin we are looking for, but I am just waiting for the coin in question to be revealed to see if it actually COULD be uglier. Thank you for the contest, my mind is bouncing from various coins. If I had to pick an ugly coin for the contest. How about the 1965 Churchill Crown coin? Yes, that is my offical guess.  If it is the winning coin I would be a little bummed since I adore the man so much, but I admit...the coin is awful. I do own a coupe though. Thanks again for the contest- RFB

We have a winner  RFB, with the Churchill crown. Every time I look at it I can't help but wonder how drunk the designer was that day. It looks as though someone has pushed poor Churchill's head through from the other side. PM me your address RFB and you can add another one to your collection. Congratulations!

Quote: I thought it was a map of Greenland! Greenland has better relief  Agreed--Churchill's memory could have been done better. It looks like he's stumbled into a sliding glass door.

never realized how much Churchill looked like the fat Brando before he died.

 Wheezy, are you trying to tell me something? I have been informed I have to mow the lawns (jungle) and then number 2 will be up, with a slightly different format...
