    Your all wrong! The most beautiful coin is the 1839 British Five Pounds.

    I usually like a bit more simplicity in my coin designs, I am pretty partial to the US Draped Bust designs.

    I ws referring to the other side of that coin - the Lady in the Clouds. Often described as one of the most attractive coins of the 20th Century.

    The SLQ's are o.k. too. Kiss

    IMO, this is the most beautiful coin ever made. Big, Bold, and spectacular in every way.

    Hands down, the Indian cent IMHO is the MOST beautifully designed coin! OK, so I'm a little prejudice.... :smile

    I definitely think that coin is one of the nicest designs ever done. It is absolutely beautiful...both this version and the round. I have seen one example of the octagon version when I was a kid at the Smithsonian and they are gorgeous.

    Those Pan-Pac 50's are amazing.

    my favorites are:
    1) now the Pan-Pac 50
    2) SLQ type 1
    3) Morgan $
    4) IHC
