i like all half dollars.
mostly the barber series, full set minus 1892 micro "o".
walkers next, all but the 1921D.
seated halves are nice when in good enough condition to see the detail.
mercury dimes,flying eagles,nickel 3 cents, i guess i like all coins. |

The mercury dimes and wheat/indian cents might be my favorite designs.
The seat half dime is pretty sweet too. |
`Everybody is ignorant. Only on different subjects.' Will Rogers
"This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists' tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the "hidden" confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property rights. If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists' antagonism toward the gold standard." Alan Greenspan, 1966. |

| I prefer the walking liberty obverse to all others, but for the reverse, I'll take the 1898 double eagle gold. - Incredible artwork. |

| My faves are Walkers and Kennedy Halves. Though I've been pretty taken with a Mexican Onza I just got. |
Are you throwing that out? |

1. Standing Liberty Type 1. Can't help myself, I'm a chest man. In fact, I think Liberty should be minted at least partially if not totally naked all the time. Talk about making our coins collectable! LOL OK, I'm just perverted. Followed by
2. 1907 SAINT GAUDENS DOUBLE EAGLE - ULTRA-HIGH RELIEF and thrid
3. $5 Indian gold coin recessed strike. They dont make 'em like this anymore.
With special fondness for the Bridgeport Centennial 1936 Half Dollar with P.T. Barnum on the ob and "stylized eagle" on the back. Talk about a funky chicken. |
