<p>[QUOTE="Cherd, post: 1464664, member: 24754"]My favorite coin is one that I do not yet own (hopefully someday). And I am not even sure whether it is the actual design, or just the appearance of this picture that I happened to find online (don't remember where I got it from). It's a 1794 Large Cent. I like the obverse design in general, the detail in the hair is pretty sweet. But what really appeals to me about this particular coin is the relief, roundness, and prominence of the cheek. Makes Lady Liberty look like a cute little gerbil with a bunch of food stuffed in there. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Like I said, for all I know it may be an optical illusion produced by the method used to take this picture. I have not seen an extremely high grade example in person.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]183375.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
