"Hey! What about it Wednesday!?"

Hello all! New and different daily thread here.
It's called "Hey! What about it Wednesday!?".
Post a Coin(s), token, medal or currency that you paid TOO MUCH for and said, "Hey! What about it!?". Why? Maybe you just like it a lot or just needed it to fill a spot or some other reason.
I have several coins that I probably paid too much for but at the present, I can only think of this 2004D Wisconsin set that was purchased for $700. Is it still worth that much today? Probably not.

I paid WAY to much for this, when I was completing my Registry War Nickle set.

 

Can we see the other side?

 

Yes, but it will cost you. Just kidding. I'll do it later if that's okay boss.

 

Mostly I feel like I do OK, but I overpaid on this by a lot. I was unfamiliar with the pricing and bought in on impulse. I was wrong, but the coin is great.

 

A 50D is a nice pick-up.

Overpaid for this, but did not have one at the time and I just wanted it!

 

Yes, you can.

 

It's all relative. 20 years ago I spent too much on some that turned out to be dogs, like this Canada 1945 $1 marketed as MS60, paid $185 thinking it was a good deal, value at the time was $260. But it showed up not MS and cleaned. Back then cameras were not as good and I was dumb. But it turned out to be the 5/5 variety so maybe there's a silver lining (heh-heh).
Lesson: don't buy coins based on images like this.

Every single US Mint Proof set from the 1970's forward.

If you want pictures, it'll take me hours.

 

Yeah, I have a few. Learning curve. But since I don't take great photos, they will remain in my hall of shame.

 

How'd you get that "slight rotation" photo?

 

Definitely overpaid for this, but the tonic made it worth it to me Think I paid 70 bucks
