I would love to get a 1955 doubled die cent but doubt that will happen. Just at the top of my wish list!!!

 

I have quite a few US coins that I need for my registry type set, but I’d have to say that the one I’ve been looking for the most lately, and would like to add this year, is a draped bust silver dollar.

 

I am satisfied with what I have collected. I no longer have a wish list as I now enjoy them until the train of life takes them to my heirs. My wish is that all of you reach your goals in collecting and life itself. Thanks for sharing and good luck!

 

I can't decide. I'm spending the year selling and that money will go to something special. Probably a bust coin.

 

Something like this Larry?

 

Mine is to try and finish a RPM and OMM set for the 38D Buffalo. All MS65 or better.
According to Wexler there are 14 RPM's and 4 OMM's. This has changed since I last collected them.

 

Damn I was going to say I finally get a Mercury dime to and to my collection

 

Dang when I made this post I thought Green18 was coming in with this! lol

 

I feel a lot like @Mr.Q above. I haven't bought anything new from the mint for years. I have all the circulation issue US coins from the late 1800's to about 4 years ago. The exceptions are the extremely difficult to find. I am pulling selected coins from my sets and passing them to children and grandchildren. An example is the 1900 Layfette Dollar. It was included in my complete collection of 20th Century Silver Dollars (including all commemoratives). I gave it to one of my daughters. So, I'm not looking to add anything.

 

For my PCGS Type Set:
Fugio Cent
Indian Head Cent No Shield, Wreath (1859)
Three Cent Silver
Shield Nickel with Rays (1866-67)
Liberty Head Nickel With Cents (1883-1912)
Seated Liberty 20 Cents
Capped Bust Quarter
Liberty Seated Quarter
Standing Liberty Quarter Type I (1916-17)
Washington Quarter Bicentennial (1976)
2004-D WI State Quarter High/Low Leaf MS66
2019-2020 West Point Washington Quarter MS67
1964 Kennedy Half Dollar MS67
Kennedy Half Dollar Bicentennial (1976/D)
Barber Half Dollar
Liberty Seated Dollar
Trade Dollar
Eisenhower Dollar Bicentennial (1976)
1936-M Philippines Peso Roosevelt

 

I've got 3x pricey wish list items. If I'm lucky, hoping to pick up one of them this year --

- 20th century MS64 or higher Liberty Head double eagle (specifically want 20th century vs 19th to fill last gap in my 20th century MS gold type set)

- MS62 or higher 1900 Lafayette commemorative silver dollar - one of the keys (and only silver dollar) in the classic silver commemorative set.

- 2009 ultra high relief St. Gauden double eagle - an exceptionally cool modern restrike of the classic St. Gauden double eagle. Fun fact: his original design called for a 22mm, eagle-sized coin that would be exceptionally thick. Unfortunately, technology of the time couldn't accommodate such a high relief coin and the design was adjusted. In 2009, to demonstrate just how far technology has come along, the US Mint released this issue to demonstrate their prowess and growth.

 

Hopefully a 1793 liberty cap cent.
I have a feeling my wallet wont like it.

 

The top of my wish list is a Grant Commemorative with a star. I was offered one recently, an MS-67 for stupid money. I'd be very happy with an AU coin.

 

My list: 1877 MS65RD Indian Head Cent
1916-D MS65FB Mercury Dime
1916 MS65FH Standing Liberty Quarter

Wants and reality are two different things.

 

Now I know who's been bidding against me lol!

 

Man after my own heart not for me anymore but trying to get kids grandkids involved and the double mylar album's I think cost now more than the coins I'm putting in them!

 

Indian Head Half Eagle
Indian Head Quarter Eagle
Liberty Eagle
Liberty Half Eagle
Liberty Quarter Eagle

 

I've been thinking about a California fractional gold piece for a little while now. They're so darned expensive though! If I see one, I'm going to have a difficult time resisting the urge to splurge.

 

I’m starting to feel like @Collecting Nut ….. Opened a forgotten cabinet in my office last week and found four coins. Thinking this may be the year that I finally thin the herd. Seems I said something similar last year too… Oh well…
