Let’s see a coin or coins that you have out today. What coin are you looking at or showing today?
Usually on Fridays I bring a coin or two to work to show friends or nice customers. 
Today I brought these with me:

I had this one out to show a LEO buddy.... Cheers, RickO
Did the same thing, happens often at work...brought this one in to show a couple of the coin lovers I work with
This week one of my coworkers brought in the penny book she worked on dilegently with her dad for decades before he passed. They were casual collectors who truly enjoyed time with each other building that penny book. Both her and her Dad are/were Veterans and she said, "we spent so much time connecting when we worked on this book together."
I felt that was incredibly special of her to show me her album.
She had a few nice MS and a few proofs and few nice rainbows in her book too...I taught her a bit about them.
The steels in her book were all AU
She had never seen anything like this before
Kinda blew their minds with this one lol

Well, just a few minutes ago I left one of these inside a Christmas Card on my new bosses desk. Does that count?

Just received these today and they came with some good ones to practice my coin shooting.
Here is the first what do you think?
Another decent one and semi PL.
Edit: darker setting.
Here’s one just for fun. An ancient beauty 😉

Enjoying this one and pondering if I should shoot for an upgrade with one of my vouchers
And just a straight up enjoying this one. One of the better looking 61s I've seen and it really is purple in hand.

A rather rare contrasted 1938 nickel that @Eldorado9 was blown away by:
Coin Photographer.
And from a different package that also arrived today, errr Yesterday!
A couple more PL not as dramatic or deep as the Kennedy Reverse above.
Your thread reminded me this was still out on my desk from last week. 1910 S RPM 3. I will now store it until it's off to our host.

This 1852 3 cent piece is toned so beautiful I don't think I'll ever be able to give it up. The Star of David and the toning makes my Christmas season even better than it already is. Merry Christmas to all.

this one is out on my desk—it’s a 64 but i recently bought a 65 that i couldn’t pass up. no trueview of that one yet but will be dropping it off for reholdering at FUN
Nothing is as expensive as free money.
Here’s one I’ve been photographing. Circulated copper is tough! All of those little hits are there.... but any photograph I can manage over-emphasizes them compared to the in-hand look. Nice and chocolatey:
