    Based on a PM from Stainless, he asked what my favorite coin was. I have a few, but I would have to say that as of now, this is my all time favorite coin. What are yours? Post pics if you have them.

    All Time Favorite, hmm? I guess this one, purchased in an uncleaned ancient lot, cleaned it myself. Michael 4, dated about 1034-1050. Right before/about the time of the 1st Crusades. Christ and beaded cross.

    Ben - Very nice and unique! I have to say that I am very suprised - I for sure thought it would be a CBH or something of the sort. ;)

    Bust halves. Especially the 1807 and 1808 capped bust halves in high grade.

    Does it have to be ours, or one we dream of having? Here is one I own that I think is my favorite (very tough decision at the moment to choose)

    It's between this one, and my 24-D, sort of a tie, but this one is my newest coin.
