    Post your Christmas coin wishlist here. The coin can be anything minted in the USA from 1793-2011. My wishlist is as follows:

    American Eagles,
    Silver Quarters,
    Dimes,
    Halves etc.
    Or a crisp $20 to save for key dates I need(1916-D Merc, 1932 D&S Washington Quarters) :thumb:

    I could go for some ancients. Pretty much anything as long as it's in nice condition.

    Cazkaboom One for all, all for me.

    Uncirculated Mercs and mid grade Barbers.
    A 1995 Silver eagle proof or unc.
    I would also like to complete my type set including a half dime, 20 cent piece (I can only dream) and 3 cent silver and 3 cent nickel. I guess I will go to my local coin show in march and see what I can get with my Christmas money.
    And something old and slabbed. Preferably SLQs or Mercury dimes

    I realize this wasn't minted in the US, but the top of my Christmas list is the new Australian $1,000,000 gold coin, made from 1 metric ton (1,000 kg) of gold (http://www.perthmint.com.au/1-tonne-gold-coin.aspx). I promise if I get that, I won't ask for anything else.

    I would probaly have to go with a 1957 proof set,1921 mercury dimes,bust half dollar,and a stone mountain half dollar.
    And one more thing that I would be happy with just getting, a scale to weigh coins.If I got a scale thats all I would need for Christmas. But as long as I'm with my family I'm happy.

    Just a Glenna Goodacre sacagawea, 2006 reverse proof eagle, and some coin tubes. And air-tites.

    I have been into rocks and minerals lately, and I think I'll buy myself a Dremel with all the bits (so I can better poke at my finds) and put it under the tree. I already have some pretty agate candidates from our last road trip and I'd love to play with them a little.

    I'd like to find a couple of nice DMPL Morgans... Maybe some Capped Bust halves. Also, if you're interested, gecko , I've got a '32-D for sale/trade. Need photos? PM me. :)

    I'm still hopeful for the metal detector!!!! And the 2011 Silver Eagle..l
    And a non coin medal, from the late 50's, which I have no idea where to begin my search.
    And even though not a U.S. coin, I'd like the Canadian Canoe coin, either the new one (sold out) or the old one (from the 50's?)
    Aw heck; a proof shield cent!

    Does Santa review these lists??

    :)

    It's not a coin, but it directly coin related;

    It's a Tamron AF 90mm f/2.8 Di SP A/M 1:1 Macro Lens... apparently, haha. No clue what all of that means, but it's supposed to be a pretty good macro lens... anybody here have any experience with it in regards to coins?

    Oh, and I could go for a nice '16-S 64FB Merc dime. :)

    Some high aspirations! I remember the first time I held an 1877 IHC, Just a couple months ago, for a VG-8 piece, I sensed the real beauty in it.
