Number one on my wishlist

Hi Guys,

If money was no issue, what would your top 5 coins be you'll buy.

I am a big fan of old ZAR coins, thus here's mine:

1. 1899 Single nine krugerpond (unique-only 1 minted)
2. Sammy Marks tickey ( ~200 minted)
3. Coarse beard burgerspond (very low mintage)
4. High grade Veldpond (mintage ~ 500)
5. High grade 1893 kruger 1/2 pond (very low mintage)

Cheers

I'm also a big fan of SA coins and notes. I have quite a few in my collection.
I had a shoe box full, of old silver, SA coins, but my crack head brother stole them,
a Kruger Rand and about 30 of my old matchbox cars.
I'll be going to SA some time this year and hope to purchase some coins and notes.
