(picture below).</p><p><br /></p><p>My choice is the Turban Head $10 Gold Eagle. I think it’s a beautiful coin with a lot of symbolism. It got a lot of criticism in it’s day due to the Eagle looking “weak &amp; scrawny”, but at that time America <i>was </i>a weak &amp; scrawny nation.</p><p><br /></p><p>It’s just a beautiful coin. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Your turn!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1222640[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1222641[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
