What would you buy if you had $1000

There are a lot of interesting coins out there. If you had a windfall of $1000 to spend on coins, what would you buy? Would you buy five $200 coins, two $500 ones, or one at $1000? Would you be interested in investment value, or just get something you've always wanted? Proofs, business strikes, type coins, or to fill out a series? But more to the point, exactly what would you buy? Feel free to post pictures of what you'd like.

I'm hoping to catch an idea of what would excite you, and maybe become excited about it myself!

I would buy a XF trade dollar and with the extra money I would just work on my circulation type set.

A nice matte proof lincoln!

 

$1k would be enough for me to return to buying and flipping Morgans, and the whole point of the exercise would be to acquire specific VAMs in order to expand the knowledge base via imaging of relevant details. It's an extreme irritation to me that at least half of the thousands of attributed VAMs have insufficient information available for accurate identification.

 

This...and thanks for the Christmas gift. You can even save yourself 100 bucks. Just make your check out to Eye Appealing Coins and tell them to ship to me. They already have my address.

 

Probably a nice VG 1896 S Barber Quarter to add to my hoard.

 

I didn't say that I was providing the windfall, but I admire the brazen chutzpah.

 

Hey, one never knows!

 

I would buy a handselected Indian Head Eagle in a PCGS MS63 slab.

OK, here's my first choice!

 

9x high grade Dan Carr 64d Morgans. Then flip them for $2k or hold out a while until I can get 3k+

 

The best $1000 capped bust half-dollar I could find.

 

can you get her for a grand?

 

2009P Nickel

 

I don't get it

 

You mis read. It says $1000, not $1,000,000,000

 

That is a Penny you will never get for a grand.

 

A grand would be hard for me to choose which coin id want, so I would just go buy a Ruger Redhawk .44 mag. You know, for hunting, mammoths

 

Perhaps, but there are many "comparable options" out there than can be...

 

I think that is illegal lol
