Hi Guy's, Concerning the" Love in the Air" on this day. Post the three American coins you Love the most, in order! With an option to explain why. Thanks guys.-joey <3
Here are my three: 1. The Morgan Silver Dollar/ Why? because of its size and the big 'o Eagle on the Reverse
2. The Indian Nickel/ Because of the tradition of America in the face of the Chief! and lets not forget, Old Black Diamond
3. The Lincoln Cent/ Com'on The face of Abraham Lincoln, says it all. One of the longest running American coins with the same Obverse. It's ok if you duplicate any other persons reasons. <3
Candy anyone?

"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!

    I dont know honestly, but here we go:
    1. 1943 Lincoln Cent
    My favorite coin for sure. I don't know why.
    2. Four dollar stellas.
    Cool designs, cool story.
    3. Large Cents.
    Cool designs, amazing history.

    These are not set in stone. They are just off the top of my head.

    The 1943 Cent is cool! Probably 'cause the Steel look? The Copper 1943 is even more lovely!

    $10 Capped Bust Gold, my personal favorite coin I own

    The $5 gold Indian, the incuse design and detail are really nice.
    The Morgan dollar, large and silver and just shouts 'American'.
    The Walking Liberty Half, beautiful obverse and reverse, hefty silver and they circulated when I was a kid.
    Cheers, RickO

    Daniel Webster Valentine wrote the classic book on Half Dimes in 1931, so I guess my 3 coin loves are:

    • Liberty Seated Half Dimes
    • Capped Bust Half Dimes
    • Bust Half Dimes (the 1802 in particular, of course)
    • honorable mention to the Buffalo Nickel, an honorary half dime!

    I would have thought this thread would have gained more interest.... Most of us have a top three coins that really interest us..... Cheers, RickO

    Large cents, Indian head cents, and Peace dollars are my 3 favorites.
