  Back in 1806 I wonder how many merchants could actually make change for a dollar.

  Not as valuable as my 1901 or 1904 DMPLs, but this 1892-O DMPL of mine has got to be the best one in existence. I never tire of looking at it.

  Just because I'm old doesn't mean I don't love to look at a pretty bust.

  The “Jackson gold” (Classic head $2.50 and $5) has been a source of fascination for me since I first learned of its existence as a YN back in the late 1960s. This was first nice example I purchased for my collection. I still remember the day I purchased it, which was my 21st birthday.
  
  Back then this coin was graded as a choice AU. Today it qualifies as an MS-62.

  I bought this raw off ebay:

  My favorite because of it's history and that it was 200 years old when I was born.
  
  
  
  Also it's association with the "Pirates of the Caribbean"

  There are so many beautiful coins. For me the 1857 and 1858 Flying Eagle Cent proofs are at the top of the list. When the Flyer proof possesses strong cameo contrast, deeply reflective mirrors, and a faint hue of baby's skin pink, then no other coin compares to it's elegance and beauty, IMO.

  ANACONDA,
  
  That wreath cent is the deal! I would love to own any coin pre-1795; but one like that is simply amazing!
  
  That is one coin I would never get tired of viewing!
