Hi everyone, good morning. As the title says. I love any and all coins with the liberty or marrianne on them. I think the French have some awesome coins. also central and south America. I,ve been collecting the few I can find with this theme. Anyone else collecting these types? If so, can you recommend any? Heres some pics, of a few I have. thanks for any feedback
I have several of these types. They are some of my favorite designs too, French and Italy especially.
Thanks, Looks like I,m on an internet shopping spree today! just ordered 4 Italian coins. now to search for these, you guys have posted. good day
I like the portraits of Marianne also, this one is a matte proof: The Liberty head used on the Liberian coinage was also very nice:
Great stuff, well I just ordered a few more. 1978 Brasil 50 centavos, 1915 Lima Peru1/2 sol, 1952 25 centavos Dominicana, 1941 Argentina 50 centavos, 1916 portuguese 50 centavos...thanks a lot for the feedback everyone. Most appreciated. well its back to the spree...

that's a great coin. I have one coming. although not a ms69 like yours. it reminds me of the seated liberty pattern
Depending on how accurate you want to be, your French 2f is not a Marianne, it's Ceres, the goddess of agriculture. It's a beautiful image either way though
A nice Italian token I just picked up, with probably the best example of Art Nouveau styling I've seen on a coin. I think she fits your "liberty" requirement:
