I love the Bahamas silver coinage as a whole, especially the 50 cent, dollar, and 2 dollar pieces. Great choice!
I've been trying to unwind part of my collection, as it seems to have expanded way beyond the available space (and budget!) that I have for it....
Sheesh, if those are considered old, I must be really ancient, given that I remember the previous designs from 1934-1999!

Gotta love those terribly made zinc cents; guess the mint had to save money somehow, given that it couldn't afford to make them from copper post 1982.

Talk about delusional; I don't think the coins in that album are worth anything north of $300 combined.
I think that there are a number of contenders for the title of "least collected," though for vastly different reasons. For example, I think that...

I went through something similar a few years back when US material started to get too pricey, pushing me into world coinage instead. I worry about...
What are the odds that all three would be star notes?!?!
I think a more interesting question would focus on the lowest valued coin in circulation, accounting for inflation. Quite a few contenders in that...
I've been trying to complete my Dansco Hong Kong Type album, but the 1866 dollar and 50 cent piece are not exactly doable within my current...
Nice haul! My local show's been getting a bit too competitive for my taste; some guys actually sit there for two hours straight and pick out...
A bit, but not too much; these were issued in pretty large quantities and it looks like you have a circulated specimen.
