Most collectors of US Coinage know that the US Mint has created some of the most Beautiful coins in the world. I'd like to get the collectors data on the coins that I selected as the most Beautiful. Enjoy...
Sorry about the delay, but the Forum software requires the poll to be created separately from the original post.
Hahahahahahah...I suppose you can tell who has a lackluster lifestyle these days by the number of replies on this New Years Eve... Good to see ya back Old Dan...maybe I should change my Avatar and name to Old RickieB????? Happy New Year all... RickieB :hail:
I just had to pick the Morgans also. I think there has never been or ever will be anything else like it.
tough choice I really like the morgan dollars, but I have to say that an ms walker is hard to beat in my eyes. Both obverse and reverse are amazing, nice depth and artistry.:thumb:
With only the choices provided to choose from the Walking Liberty wins hands down for me. Granted beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The beauty I find in Walkers is the beauty of the artistry of the sculptor. Wienmans' work in both the Walker and the Mercury dime has involked a passion of love for these coins as a collector. I have become obsessed with collecting/possessing BU examples so that the true beauty of these coins can be understood and enjoyed, mostly by me. However I do find the Peace dollar to have exceptional beauty in capturing a profile of lady liberty. The wind blown hair, the pout of her mouth, and the sun burst tyera (if that's how it's spelled) really makes this coin one beauty to behold.
I'd have to vote for the Indian Penny, but since thats not on the list, I'd go for the Standing and Walking Silver.
