Without a doubt:

Lincoln cent, shield rev.
All the Capped Bust coins
Shield Nickel

 

1. Jefferson Nickel
2. Roosevelt Dime
3. Washington Quarter

 

1. Roosevelt Dime, can't stand that coin. Needs to be changed.
2. Liberty Head Nickel
3. Susan B. Dollar

 

agree 1000% one of the nicest my opinion

 

Susan B
new shield cent
and an oldie but bady 2cent

 

Well, if we all liked the same designs I suppose the values of different coin series would be unbalanced toward the ones everyone loved.

So, I'll take all those gorgeous V nickels so many of you despise, and you can have those cluttered, faded date Buffalos.

 

Eisenhower
Susan B Anthony
Sacageweas

 

1. Roosevelt dime
2. Eisenhower dollar
3. Eunice Kennedy Shriver dollar

 

I'd take a Buffalo over a V Nickel anyday... V Nickels are so ugly IMO

 

1. 20 cent pieces
2. 1921 morgans
3. 1912 liberty nickels

 

1. Ike dollar
2. Kennedy half
3. State quarters

 

I'll take a half dime over any and all

 

But they're soooo small...lol.

 

At least their silver. Trimes even smaller

 

Sacageweas
Louis Braille Dollar (looks like Alfred E Neumann)
Westward Journey Nickels

 

Come on you guys. This is not posted in the U.S. section, have a look outside your borders (yes, there is a whole world outside your borders, believe it or not) and you will find some uglier coins than most of the ones you have listed. This one is my number one world ugly coin...

 

But that is so ... last millennium. In 2001 they issued new designs, with more "classical" portraits. Besides, I don't have any problems with the idea that the three worst designs are US coins, hehe.

Another strange Nordic portrait - less abstract but still a little strange. No longer used either. Image from danskmoent.dk:
