Was playing around with the camera last week and finally got a good picture of my favorite variety, a 1873 S1 DDO. I like to have good pics so the coin can be enjoyed while locked up at the bank.

If you have a favorite coin, preferably a variety, post a pic and tell us why it's your favorite. I like this one since it's the "King of IHC's", my favorite series. I love the uniform toning across both sides and the strength of the DDO features. By the way, it's the plate coin from the Steve/Flynn book on IHC/FE varieties.

    This is my newest acquisition and now the favorite in my possesion. I think the light golden toning is gorgeous - especially the reverse.

  • This is a 1955 NGC PR68CAM that came out better than I expected.
