If you did not see my last thread, I am hosting a numismatic March Madness tournament!

The rules are simple. From now until April 8, on the dates listed below, voting will take place. In each round, you choose which coin should win! It doesn't matter why you chose that coin - maybe you like the design, maybe it has a cool name, or maybe you just hate the other coin. Whatever coin receives the most votes proceeds to the next round until we reach the championship on April 8! See the post here:

In the last round, the Trade Dollar blew past the Seated Liberty quarter with 63% of the vote. The Dollar shall face the Buffalo Nickel in Round 10.
So, here is the updated bracket:

This round we start a new side of the bracket! The commemorative Oregon Trail 50c battles the Liberty Cap half cent! Who will win? You decide!
Round 6 will be posted March 22, so make sure to get in your votes for this round!

    The previous bracket is off. You have been the Seated Quarter vs. the Pine Tree Shilling, but the Buffalo Nickel wins. :o

    Liberty Cap Half Cent

    I actually like the trade dollar better in the last round - but voted for the quarter as I thought it would be more popular - wrong!

    That's because the Oregon is one of are most attractive coins ever! Final will probably be this coin against the Saint and it can go either way. While the Oregon is the most artsy, I picked the Saint to win.

    The 50c still leads, but the half cent is gaining ground!
