    1909 S VDB MS 65 R :D Adn then realistically, I would like to find any of the cents and nickels I need to finish my set. But the 09 S VDB wouldn't be too shabby. :D

    Realistically (and not too much at that) I have to go with Phoenix21.

    Still some Lincolns floarting around out there. I have personally found an 11-S and a 14-S so I guess there is still a chance of finding the 09SVDB. Heavily circulated would be fine. Second choice 1955 Double Die.

    As long as we are wishing:
    an 1804 dollar.
    Sure, it would be the lowest graded one known, but, who cares.

    mine would have to be the Cheerios 2000 Sacagawea dollar

    ive been searching very diligently and no luck yet - its get harder all the time with the Pres dollars taking up the space for dollars coins - i've looked at over 2020 2000P's dollars just like a said - no luck and naturally they are mixed with SBA's and other years

    here is a link about it if anyone is interested

    What grade are you looking for?
    I agree, it is a tough date in anything from good-4 and up.

    That was a great read Snowman! Are the "pattern" Sacagawea Dollars found mostly in the eastern part of the U.S.A.?

    is possible becuase even the older washingtons like that becuase a 1932S quarter and a 1998 quarter look the same.

    the Cheerios dollars were placed in normal Cheerios cereal back in 2000. so naturally i think they are all over the country. 5500 have said to be placed in the cereal and probably many have already been spent.

    these are different from the normal 2000 Sacagawea's as you can tell by NGC web site article. These were stuck from the dies that made 12 gold Sacagawea's that went into space aboard the space shuttle back in 1999. Just recently in a coin world article that these were destroyed a few months ago.

    you can see the price that PCGS gives these coins that they would grade- big increase over normal 2000 Sac dollars :eek:

    I have found a complete set of Lincolns less the 09-S vdb, 14-D, 22, And 55 DDO. Not all of hem were the greatest shape, but the 1911-S I have certified as AU-53, Also, a complete set of Buffaloes less the varieties and 14-D, a complete set of Mercuries less the 16-D, and a complete set of Peace dollars less the 34-D and 21 (sold them for $35). The 13-S type 2 buffalo is G-4, the 21-D Mercury is F-15, and the 28 Peace was good(?).

    If most desirable means most valuable, it would have to be the 13-S Buffalo. If it is the coin I most enjoy, it is the 11-S Lincoln.

    If you have not figured out by now, these are not recent finds. This was back in the late fifties/early sixties.
