That a nice 10/9 Classic Head! Don't you wish you knew where she is now.

I sold a Whitman book of Morgans some years ago before I developed and interest. Really love to have that back.

Nice thing about old age. One tends to forget past mistakes.
Okay, maybe my former 1893-S Morgan in G-08 would be nice to have back. And ... Oops, memories are flooding back :-(

I buy and sell a lot, and as many times as I've seen this topic... I couldn't think of anything I missed having. ...but ...
I once had, and sold, a "real" 1883 racketeer nickel. It had little of the gold plating remaining, and was pretty worn. What stood out about it, was that they had taken the time to add a reeded edge. The edge was very well done. I still think of it as the only "genuine" racketeer nickel that I've ever seen. I wish I'd have kept that coin.

I regret selling an 1896-S quarter, in PCGS AU58.

Back in 2009 and 2010 I sold a good portion of my collection to raise money to take my family on a trip to Europe. I had two nice, original proof British India 1/12 Annas and several BU Queen Victoria Half Rupees that I sold. Seeing what has happened to the price of British India coins since then, I wish I had held on to them. The same is true of a nice AU 1895-S Barber dime that also helped finance our trip. But, the trip was worthwhile and we still talk about what a wonderful experience we had.

Good call Paul, you can't buy family memories like that. That's something you'll always have.

52Raymo,
You are 100% correct, but that 1901 Proof 1/12 Anna sure was pretty!
I sold it to a collector in India, so at least it went home.

I'd have to say my three Kennedy halves that were "no FG". Sold them last year and got around $925 for all three but it would be nice to have them back.

Purchased unc cleaned and artificially retoned by me. Still, great eye appeal.
