You can get a decent xf40 capped quarter for $350-$400. I got mine xf40 PCGS CAC for like $380ish. In AU and up they get really pricey.

I just voted for Capped Bust quarter, get the best you can for that money. I agree you could get all four. The others will probably not increase in value over time as well as the quarter will. ( However Barber quarters in high grade used to be a heck of a lot cheaper ) |

I voted Two Cent because of the unusual denomination.  Plus, it's the only coin of color.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020
In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020
In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024

I voted Barber just b/c I really like the looks of the design if the coin is in great condition. Five hundred would likely net a beautiful Barber.

I voted 2 cent - a 1864 clashed with the Indian cent. My personal vote - always for a Flying Eagle :) .... clashed of course. |

excellent feedback and suggestions. I really like AU at a minimum for eye appeal unless I find a technically graded EF45 that should be in a 50+ holder. Capped Bust quarter is very appealing and I like the majority. I will contemplate some more and begin my search on a CBQ and 2C. Thanks for the feedback CCF. |

I'd go for the 2 Cent coin.

Quote:For $500, you can get a nice Shield nickel, Two Cent Piece, AND Barber quarter. All AU/MS. Or you could get an EF/AU Capped Bust quarter. Since you have the money now, go for the tougher coin so you don't have to wait as long to get some of the other coins. Sort of my thinking. Go for the coin(s) that will satisfy you for a LONG time. That basically means fewer but higher grade coins. |

Here's my slabbed 7070 so far...I'm actually missing a few coins that were in another box. But you get the idea of the grade areas I am staying in.  |

Here's my slabbed 7070 so far... That 1904 25-cent gold coin you have there is really neat. I've never seen one of those before, but it looks tiny - it makes the Mercury dime beside it seem like a large coin! Must be an interesting type set if it includes obscure non-circulating issues like that. |

That little coin is awesome. Its got a Fleur-De-Li on the obverse and the date commemorating the LA Purchase. Its very small, like a pea. It's my own "Exposition Gold Commemorative" category  |

You can get an MS 2 cent for $300 and less. And a Barber quarter in MS for around the same |
