I'd like for everyone to show off their best coin in their collection. Best doesn't necessarily mean value, just the best in your opinion.
Thanks for sharing!

I don't have one coin that I would consider the best, but here are two coins that I would label the Best of the Best, and the Best of the Worst.

This is one of the best coins that I have of one of the best emperors of the Roman Empire. Antoninus Pius, a Sestertius circa 143 AD.

Well I have (2) coins they are not the most pricey as I had a couple 93 S Morgans but they are the ones I like the most. The first I just traded for it is a rare (Mint Error) Full Partial Collar coin "only have of the reeding is on the rim" Normally this type error is a weak strike this one is not. I think it is mis graded and is going back for a review. If I put 20 NGC MS-64's next to it it is truly one of the nicest. And the 1881 S Vam-54a full die break from the eagles neck down to the lower rim.

The biggest problem with this post is I have many coins I like alot!

Great coins everyone ...... I enjoy seeing them all!

For me ...... Truly wish I had a better photo of this coin ..... the slab does not matter here ...... this is my amazing MS67 Antietam half-dollar ..... now off at PCGS for a free re-grade.

Without a doubt the finest classic commemorative I have ever personally seen, much less owned ....

Post-Your-Best-Coin

If you are interested ..... you can follow the story of the re-grade attempt here ....

This is one of my favourites, An 1894 Zar Penny. Mintage of 10,769.
Don't know how to grade it yet?, but I like way the coin looks( Eye Appeal , I think is the term).

Not my best coin but certainly one of my favourites. I particularly like the symbolism of the bird feeding its chicks!!
