That I don't have?
easy the 1901 S Barber Quarter!!!!!!!!!!!
I missed one, actually blew it a couple of years ago, and now I may never own one.
But, it was my own stupidity.

 

Chain or Wreat cent....Mike

 

a 1907 High Relief St. Gaudiens Double Eagle.Or any St . Gaudiens Double Eagle actually.

 

Mine is the `901-S too. However, because my set is XF, I doubt I'll own one.

 

Barber:
Why not do what I have done, I started with lower grades and gradually, as they became available, upgraded.
At least that way you will not get frustrated.
Heck, I have a 1914 P half in XF, got it in August 1999 and have never seen another one.
Also, in December I finally got an 1897 O half in XF to replace a VG.
Both original coins have appreciated in value, and I didn't lose anything by getting them.
My 1897 O in Good I got in December, 2000, I paid $43 for it, and now it trends for $175.
The 1914 P in good cost me $33 and now trends for $140.
I won both ways, I had a nice hole filler until I got a better piece, and made a profit on the other.
Think about it.
I have done the same with both the quarters and dimes.

 

Well i'd love some gold coins, but right now i really want a 1932-D or 1932-S washington quarter.


I'm gonna leave those two for last for my 32-64 washington collection

 

i'd have to go with the 1933 Saint-Gaudens too.

 

1893-S Morgan $

 

A Gothic Crown.......:bow:

 

If this thread were in CoinChat I'd mention the deep scale variety, 1867 silver Japanese 5 sen listed as Y#1 in Krause.

But, since this is the US Coin forum, I guess I'll have to say that I'd dearly love to find a sixth 1913 Liberty nickle.

 

Treashunt,

Thanks for the encouragement.

There's a 1905-s 25c on Ebay I plan to bid on. That's a tough date.

Go for it, I got a VF in 1996, and haven't found a better one since.
Plenty of lower grades, but none better.

 

Id have to say a 1927-s SLQ in XF-AU since they are extremely scarce in those grades.

 

1794 dollar. or if i really get to pick...1895 business strike morgan!

 

Woulda, coulda, shoulda. 1945-P Dime PCGS MS-65 FSB. Had a chance at one back in '88 for $1500, but as a busted flat college student I was only $1499 short of being able to pick it up. I don't know what it would take now, but I bet it's North of 7 grand? Or more? Tough coin in FB.

Add a 1964-D Peace Dollar to that list!

 

1920-D Nickel

 

Mine would have to be the legendary 1916-D Mercury dime in BU. I get weak just thinking about it.--gunsmoke
