At this point a nice quality (XF or higher) 20 cent piece. It is the only (non-gold) denomination of US coin that I do not have.

One of my pie in the sky answers would be a high grade 4-dollar "Stella" gold piece. As you can see from both my answers I am a sucker for oddball denominations!

I want a high grade MS-60 1916-D Mercury dime. I've decided it's time to let go of my daytona watch- and if I find someone with a Merc I like, I might trade straight up for it.

Vermontensium,
Sorry it took so long to answer, I haven't been back here until now and haven't done much posting at all lately.
Fall is a busy time for me.

Anyway I'd like at least a nice G4 that shows the date and weak "n" well. I also want all the letters and most of the rim so maybe I'm looking at VG. I have a little over $500 saved so far but I get in these moods where I almost spend on other things. I almost bought a 1921 walker set (pds) last night.
Rest in Peace

I would be extremely happy with any authentic "Trade" dollar minted in Carson City. Must be in at least an AU grade.....

1861-O "Confederate" Seated Liberty half dollar. I'd also be happy with a 1909S-VDB as well, but the half would be the priority. A true 1861 Confederate half dollar though would be the ultimate dream coin for me though.

Nice call slowaltima on the Confederate Half.

I snagged my previously mentioned Type I SLQ , which I will of course post images as soon as I receive it.
What's next? Probably the "Rays" type Shield nickel.

I was lucky enough to pick up a 1931 S in a green label PCI holder (graded MS63 - but definitely undergraded). Picked up a raw 1909 S that is all of 63 with a shot at 64 (imho).

So, that leaves the S VDB.

I have been actively seeking and buying raw and graded wheats as I can find them. There is some gems out there for very reasonable prices.

After reading this post I finally figured out I can't really think of one, and only one, coin I'd like to have.
Most coins I'd llke to have are excessively expensive and I'm to cheap to ever buy one.

Easy! (1935) Connecticut Tercentenary Commemorative half dollar OR the (1927) Vermont Sesquicentennial Commemorative Half dollar.
Someday very soon I WILL own them! -Jay
