I'm sure there are many of us who possess a coin that has a different character between the obverse and reverse.

Post yours and GTG of my new piece.

    Two Face was a Peace Dollar guy for sure... AND... he certainly knows how to hold a coin properly :) . I wish I had a real coin that fit the bill.

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

    Love the 20 cent piece! I say AU55?

    I think this fits the bill!

    I'll go 50 for your 20¢ piece.

    This one might work.

    67+FB Here's another Fire & Ice...

    Here is a more modern Fire & Ice that PCGS did not like so I got rid of it. Pretty coin though.

    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    I don't believe you can get any more two faced then this. Amazing! 👍🏻

    It reminds me of the quip Lincoln made when someone said that he was “two faced.” Lincoln’s response was, “If I had two faces, do you think I would be showing this one?”
