What would you buy with $100?? (coin or coins?)

For $100 I'd buy some nice ancient Roman silver.

How 'bout this Septimius Severus Denarius? You mean I can buy something that's 1800 years old, with great artistic style, stunning detail, some fascinating history, and a growing base of collectors for under one hundred dollars?

Sure you can! Jump on over to the dark side and start collecting ancients.

I don't think you're going to find too many commems MS60-63 that look that good, and there are very few MS64's with nice designs that sell for $100 or less. With just one exception, all of mine were MS65-67. The only one below that was a 1915-S Pan Pac with exceptional toning in AU58. The problem with the MS60-63's is that they usually have a lot of detracting marks.

With a $100 I'd buy a nice capped bust quarter or half

 

head to the pawn shop, with my poker face, lol and go morgan shopping for vam

 

Buy whatever makes YOU happy. Happiness outweighs profit

 

How about a 1938 or 1939 MS67 Jefferson Nickel.

 

What a great gift , sounds like you have a fine son there .

 

If I could get that Pootie Poot coin for $100, I'd buy that.

$100 worth of half dollars to search through. Keep out the silver & errors and purchase more with the boring ones!

 

Bulk handled 1965D Peace Dollar by Dan Carr

 

I'd buy a MS66 1982 or 1983 quarter, and if I had anything left over, a souvenir mint set from the same years!

 

I would get the 1855 seated dime for my collection and some early large cents if there's any change left.

 

Fill as many holes in my albums as possible. Would not buy a single high grade coin because I don't fill holes with high grade stuff.

 

NICKELS!!! LOTS AND LOTS OF NICKELS! ( and not the jeffs, most likely the shields.)

 

I would finish this set. This holder is obsolete not made any more in any color.

Then find another dime for this one. This holder is not currently made in blue, you have to find it in this color either used or new old stock.

 

10 CWRs of halves, preferably that have been sitting in a bank vault for 40+ years

 

Buy the proof/mint sets I still need to get and then album fillers with whats left

 

Then you're missing out on all the nice raw early commems and Morgans . Still a great idea though .

 

Heck dang Gary. Ain't seen ya in quite a spell. Nice to see you dear fellow.......

 

A roll of mercury dimes and maybe even and a few walkers !
