$460,000,000.00*
If money didn't matter, I'd assume 'The Coin' that would give you the most pleasure to own wouldn't necessarily be a 1933 Saint-Gaudens or an 1804 dollar.
So, what is your "Lottery Coin"?
*for CCF members not from the US, there's a large lottery prize being drawn for tonight. A 7070 for me, three 9046's for the kids!

Because of my nature, I would have to fill all my existing holes first.  But once that is done, I would probably make a play for a 1913 Liberty Nickel. Of course, with that kind of money, I could probably add your two choices as well.  |

I like Mercury Dimes. I'd attempt to buy ALL of them.
That would actually be the fun part of it. Going to dealers and saying I'LL TAKE ALL OF THOSE. DO YOU HAVE MORE?

I could finally obtain my Trade Dollar (possibly an 1884) and fill the other holes in my 7070, slowly, I would not want to attract attention.

All the Bust Halves. ALL THE BUST HALVES...Every Overton. That would be a cool set!

Huge yacht to charter and sail the Pacific, professional crew, and a fleet of charter fishing boats and top notch captains based in all the Hawaiian islands. A couple modest houses here and there and my own personal 45 foot fishing boat to catch a world record Marlin. I think I would collect .... uh .... a complete set of all US nickels and try for a Jefferson Nickel set in MS68+ full steps and start a registry set with all PF67+ cameos. Oh well, broke already.  Hope the fishing business is good. |

Actually, $640,000,000 now. 7 expected to hit it, after taxes, a mere $44,000,000 each.
Oh, for me, the highest grade registry set of Large Cents.
If it's just one coin, highest grade Chain Cent or Silver Center Cent.

One each of all the Eagle coins to start. Then start on Silver Dollars.
