    The Solstice is soon upon us. Of what coin would you dream? So many that I can not have but can only dream of. Lovely, lilting pieces of silver and gold. Maybe a copper or two?

    My dream coin........ Panpac.jpg

    I hear tell that @johnmilton has one of these. Out my realm but still in my dreams. Please post your dreams......:)

    I'm not that Picky really. Love Shipwreck coins for their history even though I think they are overpriced.
    I would love this one for my collection, please??

    Hmm.. Judd1776 comes to mind.

    But a much more realistic dream coin would be the 1909 VDB Matte Proof.

    Five figure coins don't factor into my 2-3 figure budget yet.

    I'd love to have a Judd-1992 Walking LiberTy pattern. But if I were going to spend that kind of money, I'd rather get a really good XRF scanner, so I could tease out secrets from LOTS AND LOTS of coins. And fakes. And lots of other stuff.

    Only 2-3 in mint state. This is the finest.

    @green18 Love the title here. Most people think that Summer starts on June 21. It is actually the midpoint of Summer. The same with Winter and other seasons.
