Susan B. Anthony dollar, hands down.
"A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything." — Friedrich Nietzsche
"You ask where I live. I cannot tell you. I am a Voyageur, a Chicot, sir. I live everywhere. My grandfather was a voyageur; he died while on a voyage. My father was a voyageur; he died while on a voyage. I will also die while en route, and another Chicot will take my place. Such is our course of life."

1964 nickels for 3 reasons. There's tons of them; the metal is weird so they appear to be war nickels most of the time from the edge; they make me think "if only this were a box of half dollars" gerrrr!
others include: susan b obviously, 1965 quarters, 1965 dimes, 1971 halves.

1/100 of an American dollar is a cent. It is NOT a penny. The word penny is used by several other countries, such as Great Britain, to denote their smallest denomination. In order to be numismatically correct, you must use the term cent to describe the American coin.

I second the 1964 nickels, I have been excited a few time only to be let down once they were date-checked.

I know I'll be in the minority here, but to me, the obverse of the Barber coins are terribly ugly. I certainly do like seeing them pop out of the ground though. I would imagine that its equally exciting to see one appear in a roll, although that hasn't happened to me yet.
