[QUOTE="lkeigwin, post: 1159116, member: 30400"]Well, how about a nice AU large cent? You get history, a big chunk of pure copper (almost half dollar size), a connection to the early years at the Mint and of our country. Here's an example. How about a really cool Capped Bust Half dollar? With no silver dollars these were the workhorses and what kept our early commerce going. They're hefty and silver and largely hand made which accounts for the enormous number of varieties. Like more modern? How about an early WLH or SLQ? Drop dead gorgeous design, many in attractive states, always popular and guaranteed to appreciate. Too arcane? Go for a stunning early Buffalo nickel. Everyone relates to them. Lovely art, wonderful colors. Who doesn't like Indian Head nickels? Really modern? Sorry...can't help you there. Lance.
