Only caveat - no Morgans please. I'm a year older and must limit my small irritations accordingly ;)

Don't forget to explain why you like the example shared please. :)

P.S. apologies to @ricko

    Like the Charter Oak, we 60-something guys seem to gain a little diameter around the midsection every year... :) Happy Birthday!!

    Happy Birthday Catbert!
    Here's a matching red parking lot find :D
    Oh yea! I like it for the red toning because even though it's toned it still gets an RD.

    Here’s a coin I like the color strike and luster. In my eyes it’s the bomb.

    I saw this photo and just knew it had to be one of Joe's!

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY CATBERT!!!

    Happy birthday you old cat! Some nice coins here!!!!

    I've been a half dime guy for a long time, being lured to them over the fascination of the detail they managed to fit on these tiny discs starting in the 1700s. This particular one I like in this low grade because I enjoy pondering how much it was used. Who spent it? Was it carried by a soldier in the Civil War? I wish this one could talk.

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    I love this one because it’s one of the finest toned (and highest graded non-RD) Memorials in existence (MS67+RB).

    Instead of being attributed RB, it should be ROYGBIV!

    Looks RD to me, % wise...RB must mean RainBow.

    Here is one of my favorites. It came from the Newman collection so I know the toning was from years spent in the envelope. I love the color and the fact that I have a "big sister" -1895-O half from the same collection. It obviously has the focal blue toning but the delicate golden toning around the rims highlight it and is gorgeous in-hand.


    Happy birthday! I wish I’d thought to post something like that on my birthday this past weekend! I’ve always liked the early Barber quarters with the mintmark off to the right.
