Pretty simple rules here, post a pic of your favorite 20th Century coin design. For purposes of this thread, coin series that started in the 19th Century are NOT allowed. Commemoratives ARE allowed. If you have more than one favorite you may show a picture of ONLY one coin, but MAY LIST two other coins.
Even though I'm obviously a Franklin guy I would NOT list that as a top three favorite design from 1900 - 1999 (yeah, yeah, I know... technically 1901 - 2000, but let's just keep it to the 9's).
I'd probably go with the Oregon as my fave and list the Peace dollar and the Walker half as two other designs that really float my boat.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

I like it but it might not be my favorite, I just posted it to be a little different.

Thanks AB!
I just love Standing Liberty Quarters, it's just to bad that I can't afford to collect them on a regular basis!

Walking Liberty half is my runner-up all time favorite 20th century design.

Right you are Lance. The first half of the 20th Century did provide some of the best coinage of all time. Lots of great choices...........MJ

t the heck is that, Raybo! MS67? or 66? This coin appears to be one of the reasons the word "gem" gets applied to some coins...
