It does not have to be rare or costly, you just have to like it.image

Mine changes with my taste, but right now it would be this 1786 British Guinea. PCGS AU-50 and the third finest of that date graded by any major service:

    They're all great, but the 1887 proof crown really caught my eye.

    Is it in an NGC slab? What is their grade for the coin?

    That one was an eye popper. Very nice. What does it grade?

    While not darkside, this is my current favorite. My favorite seems to change every month or two.

    Only one??? image I really like this one, more of a token of the French Revolutionary period it has a guy with a chicken on his head. On the reverse the little hat even has a chicken on it. How can you not love it? Plus it's a strange denomination; 2 sols, six deniers. image
