So we've had copper, silver and gold, how about pics of your other fave coins that are made of other alloys.

Here's my tin farthing of 1684.

Cool!!!

I love tin coins, it's undoubtedly my fave coin alloy.

I just love pristine brass!! Like tin, it's next to impossible to find without problems.

Speaking of tin, Nicholson sure had some sweet tin halfpennies, eh?

Say, that's a sweet 10-rappen! I always liked that Swiss stuff.

Bolivia, copper/nickel.. an ebay auction that struck my fancy...

I have four of them, the four key dates of the entire run of nickel-brass 3ds:

1946 proof

1949

1950

1951

I found the 1946 and 1949 before I obtained the 1950 and 1951!!

I also have a business strike 1946 in UNC, but it has a very detracting corrosion spot on the reverse.
