Hi guys,
Now, I know I'm infamous in this category, as many others here, I'm sure. Post a coin/s that you definitely know, without a doubt. That over 90% of the forum doesn't like but the fact that YOU like it, and for any reason, that's all that matters.
It's a "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder" thread. Lol. Thanks guys and sorry for the ones that don't see the beauty as we see it. Here is one I just came across in CRHunting quarters. Love the patina and splashes of hidden color behind all the main features on the quarter.




Also love the eagle's breast feathers

    Looks like it spent time in the ground. It may be a metal detector find.

    Much like art, the opposite sex, wines or cars.... A matter of personal taste... Many here do not like the 2021 Morgan - I do!.... And guess what? That is OK.... The sun is coming up, all is well here and life goes on. Cheers, RickO

    Not a coin per say but when I saw this at a local shop, I had to have it.
    It's beat to heck but has just a tone of character and all the stories it could tell....

    Do I detect a little, "tongue in cheek" comment? :D

    Although quite fragile that's a impressive World War II Short-Snorter with all those signatures.

    You should place that in a Capitol thick acrylic screw together currency holder to preserve it.

    Here's one from the "dark side" that I had to have because of its nice surfaces, cameo-look, and original-looking toning for a no-date Newfy half. It's one of the nicer low-grade Newfy halves I've seen in low grades and well worth the $2.50 premium over spot to me.

    I've collected SBA's every now and then when I think they look nice. Given people's comments on these boards about SBA's, that should put any of these coins on the list...

    This is one I like that I could see others not being incredibly fond of:

    This coin doesn't qualify. It's WAY TOO NICE in my opinion and I suspect most here would agree.

    I've seen 7 or 8 over the years toned like that.
