I have never owned a coin with a TrueView, but hopefully that will change soon. Some of these coins might belong to forum members, but I liked them and they ended up on my camera roll.

Here's my fave!
Although, I sold it.

I have too many favorites, but this one popped off of CoinFacts during some research recently, so it's one of my favorites. It's a 67CAM, and I like that the photographer took it to show the contrast. My one big gripe with TrueViews is that so many are taken with lighting that makes contrast non visible. So many coins that are rare in CAM are taken to show color rather than what truly makes those coins stand out.
A side note: quite a few of those TVs that @dunkleosteus430 posted are familiar favorites for me. The 1922 Peace dollar is actually my favorite Peace TrueView.

This has to be my favorite TV...............

Mine's the following Trade Dollar because there is something magical about that design and the PCGS truviews make the coin appear larger than life

My favorite coin I own -
It's a tough decision but I haven't seen too many gold coins with patina on them. It's like it sat in someone's old leather pouch for a long time. I'm pretty fond of my mid-century dime too.

Not mine but like the toning.

Many of my TVs are not a good reflection of what the coin looks like in hand. I dislike this. For this reason, my friend @robec does my photos. He's fantastic.
However, there are a couple that are fairly accurate from my collection. This is surprisingly one of them:
PR67
"Got a flaming heart, can't get my fill"
I've seen a few 1922-D Peace Dollars struck from somewhat polished dies, like that one (especially on the reverse).
Is it graded "PL" ?
As Peace Dollars go, that is as close to PL as you will find.
Dad bought this one in the GSA sales years ago. Just had it graded.

These are the coolest Peace Dollar True-Views:
This one is up there
I originally bought this coin raw off Ebay and it graded 62 (tied for finest 73-P chop marked T-$) Then sold it to Tradedollarnut.
This was originally in an NGC holder as MS-63 with no PL (or *) designation.
I submitted to PCGS asking for a PL designation to no avail, and they downgraded it to a MS-62
I might resubmit to NGC someday and ask for PL... who knows.
I am a small time collector of the very common Morgan dollar. However I enjoy them. This coin I had for a long time and it was in a PCGS “rattler” MS65. I finally decided to have it submitted for reconsideration. It came back MS67! I was blown away.
Even Abe has toning.
This Civil War token has some of the most electric colors I've seen.
