[QUOTE="Paul M., post: 2124219, member: 73165"]Oh, don't worry. :) I plan on it! After all, I'm the one who will be looking at this coin for the next few years (decades, with luck). Good point. The one I think is just plain cool is the Seated dime. I like it because it seems to be an unlisted die variety, but, even if I'm wrong, it's still cool and I'd be glad to have it in my collection. All of the first 4 are priced at around current retail FMV. [LIST] [*]The Hawaiian is a little over book, but I would say it goes above and beyond in eye appeal. I think I might have room to negotiate on this one, and it looks like a PQ coin to me. [*]The Lafayette has excellent luster for a 63, and beautiful toning. This one seems particularly hard to come by with both qualities. [*]The Seated dime would be cool even if not a new variety. :) [*]The SLQ is a truly stunning piece. As a type coin, it definitely meets the "if I could only have one for this price" test. [*]I don't have a specific coin in mind for the Barber (would have to hunt a little, but I don't think [I]finding[/I] a nice Barber half will be a problem -- it'll be finding a nice Barber half at a price that isn't going to completely break the bank). [/LIST] Whoops, I forgot to specify, didn't I? It's the Hawaii commem. I am also a fan of the 1883 Hawaii issues, but they're not really on my radar yet. They're within my general interests, as are the US Philippine coins and the Puerto Rico provincial coins, but not something I've really dug into yet.[/QUOTE]
