    I think I might have the rare issue of that $1 Franklin Mint 1976 Guyanese coin. Is this the Special Proof (population 50)? Can anyone help me with this? 000_0592 (2).JPG 000_0591 (2).JPG

    I will spare you my 200+ horses, but a few others I like are below. ;)

    I like these two lions:

    And, I find the Bison quite majestic on the US nickel.

    I have no idea how you'd tell the difference. I always assume I have the most common one.

    Love that Uruguay 1 Peso. Will have to find one of those for my collection...reminds me of the 1927 Vermont Commemorative.
