Can't say I "hate" any coin series. There are many I don't care for and don't collect for that reason but hate is a strong word.
Never liked Susan B dollars. Let's face it. A dollar the size of a quarter and she wasn't exactly a babe. I own several that I bought cheap on impulse.
Sacagaweas. Another "garbage" dollar coin to me as well. Nice enough looking coin and I own a few but just not real functional IMHO as goes with the Presidential dollars.
Practically any "modern" coin and even the ones that have been in circulation as far back as 1909 don't do a great deal for me. Still I have thousands of them so I guess I don't "hate" them.
How about a few surprises from me? How about Buffalo Nickels and Standing Liberty Quarters. Odd wouldn't most of you think? Here's what I "hate" about them. Many, including myself, would put these as two of the most BEAUTIFUL coins this country has produced.
My problem? Why weren't the design flaws fixed earlier if at all? In the past week I have gone through literally thousands of Buffalos to separate them into full, parial and no date examples. I managed to put together a group of 2000 full dates for the boss to sell to another dealer, at least 1000 partial dates and about the same in no dates.
The series ran for 25 years and it was never corrected. I also bought 7 common date high end AUs while I was at it.
Standing Liberties? Same thing. A stunning coin in BU for sure. I recently went through several hundred in a large hoard. OVER half had no dates. Strong mintmarks and often F12 detail but NO dates. They fixed that glitch in 1925 yet I wonder what the dates WERE on some that I looked through. I put several 1917-S Type I in 2x2s. I only knew what they were by the mintmark and reverse. Date was long gone.
I bought two 1927-D today.
I don't like dimes in general. Too dang small for my vision. I have over a thousand but mainly for the silver.
Now give me a nice half dime or a 3 Cent Silver and I love em. Smaller but cooler.
I've rambled enough but the point is I think most of here tend to like coins in general. Just some more than others. Everyone has their reasons and if you live for Susan Bs more power to you.
All coins are good in some aspect.
