    $5500 for a Morgan about 11 years ago. Guess which one, and guess the condition. :)

    Just for it being a coin -- $400 for a slabbed Morgan
    If you want to count coins that are worth more as just bullion --- $2100 for a 50 peso Gold.

    I don't keep track, but probably somewhere around $1500. I've paid more for currency. If I kept better records I'd might eventually force myself to seek help and quit. So, I'll never keep any records.

    just waiting for the member that owns one of the 1913 nickels to post up and top everyone. Ha!


    I am still relatively new to coins, but if this thread was about wrist watches, it would be a different story! :)

    $300 for a 14D cent back in my wheatie collecting days. Most I've spent on a coin for the current type collection is $250 for a 1906 Barber Half. Most of my coins are in the $100-150 range.
