[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1427672, member: 22585"]Alright Kirkuleez! One of my favorite things to do...force my collecting preferences onto other collectors! :) I also like to mix it up. I will throw my hat(s) into the ring with German Empire (1871-1918) or Canada large cents. A quick couple of things about the German Empire coins (for circulation): -The prices are very good. With the silver, high mintage ones, you can get very high grade examples for just above melt. Except for 50 pfennings, which are the rarest and most costly. -The designs are beautiful. I mean, cmon, it's an eagle holding a shield with a picture of an eagle holding a shield. You can't deny the triple eagle/shield combo! -You can put together yearly sets at great prices. -You can expand into the various regions once you had your fill of the standard coinage. -and much much more! Here are some examples of the standard coinage denominations. The only two not posted are the 1 and 2 pfennig. The 5 mark is an example of a regional coin. That one is Prussia.
