<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lkeigwin, post: 1437403, member: 30400&quot;]Great answers, and a nice variety of choices.</p><p><br /></p><p>The OR commem is to die for. It was auctioned recently on Heritage. Someone will find it. I bought it from the winner, who got into a bidding war and later had second thoughts. It sold for well over $1k. Quite a premium but really a spectacular coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>The &#039;17-D Lincoln is a funny one. When PCGS announced their &quot;big one&quot; a couple of years ago (plus grading, Secure Plus and all that) I sent it in because I thought it was undergraded and might get a bump. I didn&#039;t get the grade bump but they gave it a full RD designation instead of the RB it had. Hmm. A $3k coin now, per the price guide? I don&#039;t think so. I&#039;m okay with a $1k ballpark.</p><p><br /></p><p>The T$ is the most lustrous I&#039;ve seen in a long time. A few field issues hold it back but oh my it&#039;s a stunner. I looked for one like this for almost 5 years. I was building a 1878 dollar set and this completed it.</p><p><br /></p><p>CBH&#039;s are probably my favorite series today. I have several 1814&#039;s. This isn&#039;t the most colorful but I really enjoy the clashing and over all look.</p><p><br /></p><p>I love large cents. That&#039;s an S-65, shielded hair variety. Head of 1794, not 1795 (PCGS misattributed it). Die pair typically weak on right side and strong on left. It&#039;s a beauty, in a PCGS slab 5 OGH.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1859 IHC at MS64 is a $1500 coin, according to the price guide. I bought it closer to $1k on ebay several years ago and it is a standout. 64 is probably fair but it could plus. It&#039;s not important.</p><p><br /></p><p>THANKS TO EVERYONE ON THEIR OPINIONS! $1k is a lot to spend on any one coin but we all find ways to justify it.</p><p>Lance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
