What three coins would you select?

I thought this would be an interesting question. If you had the opportunity to receive any three coins which ones would you select.I know what i would select, and value has nothing to do with it SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

1) 1955 double die The KING
2) UNC fugio cent
3) A MULE

interesting question

That's a great question. Mine would be:

1) 1974 aluminum cent.

2) 1913 Liberty nickel.

3) If the coin can be hypothetical, I would like a 1939-D Jefferson nickel in MS-70. If the coin must exist for this exercise, I would settle for a nice MS-67 or 68, preferably with full steps.

Not that I'm greedy or anything.

 

1. 1793 Liberty Cap Cent
2. Any Saint Gauden's Double Eagle
3. 1956 Flying Eagle

*drools*

 

Wow, (readers ignore answers, since they already know).

1) 1892 O micro O Barber half dollar, MS-anything.
2) 1894 S Barber dime, PF-65, or better.
3) 1901 S quarter, MS-65


and, since I had money left over from selling my 1804 silver dollar, I'd add the 1913 S and 1896 S Barber quarters and a complete set of Gem unc dimes and quarters, heck toss in the half dollars and I would still have a ton of money left.

 

Not too hard to find, sorry no full steps though.

 

My list would be the same as my million dollar list:

1. MS69 Morgan Dollar
2. Panama-Pacific $50 Octogonal MS67
3. The king of all toned Morgan Dollars 1881-S MS68

 

BTW Jazz, I don't know if everyone knows what a mule is. A mule is a coin with mismatched dies. I personally have never seen one, but think that they are ultra cool. Check this one out that sold in 2001. The mule is the king of errors IMO.

my 3 are in no particular order

1933 double eagle argubly the greatest coin of the americas
1000 mohurs shahjahan arguably the greatest coin from asia

i am still researching the third coin its not often you get good coins and as with all great coins the grade does not matter they are simply the best

Oh, well, I think that I won't be greedy.

especially since jazzcoins is buying them for me!

 

Only if you buy my UNC fugio cent for me. Well let me think about that a little longer.
