Kristofer Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 This is a far more comprehensive list than the last one, I've tried to include everyone's favorites. I consolidated the australian Lunar series down to one entry, so if you prefer any of the lunar series over the other coins than you can just vote for that series. Also include your reason, whether it be cheap(I mean relatively cheap, to mean cheap in price would be laughable with current PM values), historical value, or appreciation of the coins art. If you want make any suggestions, that's where I got many of the new entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Hmm.. the Libertad does have boobies on it. But I do like birds. Nah. I have to go with the Maple Leaf again. I think its the nicest of all those designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElleKitty Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Why must I have to choose only one? Arrg! I'm horrible with choices. I picked the Aussie Kooks. The early years are alright, but the recent years have been IMO stunning. I especially like the 2008. The bird has the most mischievous expression on his face, with his head cocked right at the person looking at the coin. I find it charming. I also love the classic look of the Canadian Maple Leaves, and I really like the direction the Chinese Panda coins are heading as well. That thick rim framing the coin, with the legends over it remind me so of the 1797 copper cartwheels of Great Britain. I find that look very pleasing.

First of all, only a cat would be after a bird. Second of all, it was a tough choice between the kook and the maple leaf for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtryka Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Libertad!!! Hooray for boobies!!! (actually the obverse design was based on the old gold 50-peso obverse, which was always a classic beauty in my mind!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akdrv Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Maple Leaf forever! Libertad is the second choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
