I'd have to say that my favorites are a series. The last of the Miss Liberty designs have some of the most beautiful coins that I know. There was real art in these coins, and I wish we could see a revival of coinage in that styling. Peace Dollars, Walking Liberty Halves, Standing Liberty Quarters, Mercury Dimes, Indian Head Cents... gorgeous coins, the likes of which I think we'll never see again. Patrick Henry said, "Give me Liberty..." I'll bet he was talking about coins.
here here Check_M_All! Stop designing coins on a computer with clip-art and hire some artist to make coins! Or actually... stop the design by committee!
I too am collecting half cents. I've been doing large cents for awhile and that led to the half cents and now I like them best. I'm trying to fill a Dansco book. Getting pretty close too. I really like the classic head design. thunder_puck
