    Polls are limited to ten (10) entries. Bummer, I know, but it would have been one huge poll.

    1934 Texas Commemorative.jpg

    Colombian Expo and Stone Mountain because of their iconic designs. I think every collector should have an example of these two. These will be upgraded one of these days.

    Being a native Texan, my favorite is the 1936 Texas. 1936 is the actual 100th anniversary of Texas independence. The half is on my future planning list.

    After that, I like the Stone Mountain. A lot of history and controversy behind that one.

    Oregon by far. Very artistic design, and low mintages.

    The Stone Mountain and Oregon trail are my favorite ones by far. I love their deeper prints.
    Someday I also want a Iowa commemorative, just cause I live there.
    The Columbus commemorative is also one of my favorites because it was the first and because of its reverse design.
