A complete set of proof franklins in deep cameo... Not as lofty as some but still pretty steep for me.

A complete collection of Korean coinage all the way from Koryo to Chosun and Korean Empire to present, including all (known) types of cash coins ever cast (including seed coins), all of the late 19C patterns and mid 20C patterns, full collection of each type (all dates/major varieties), commemoratives (Proof and Business strike), Japanese coins circulated in Korea during Japanese occupation, and all of the known types of charms.
Dream big.

My almost realistic dream would be to complete my uncirculaed set of Washington quarters only need 11 more...well 12 if I upgrade my 32-S. Unrealistic I have 2 A complete MS set of US half sets and a complete type set of QE I including gold and a three farthings. "I be so thin that I but put a rose behind my ear and people say thus three farthings go." |

High Desert USType Set Yep that would do it! For those who don't know what the High Desert US Type Set is see here: http://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/oth...ts.aspx?m=66That set is a double  I believe that Legend Coins and "Laura Sperber" is the main dealer that has been the main buyer for the set. I know she has mentioned many of the coins they have paced in that set in her blog. Finest known by a mile so far. 66 Sets in the PCGS Registry, and all but a few (9) are ranked #1 the rest are all top 3 except one lone ranked set at #4.

My dream collection would be the following and why: 1: Gold ASE and this would top off my ASE2: 2014 Gold Kennedy and this would top off the set 3: An aureus set of the 12 Caesars. Have had some converstions with my lcs owner who advised that this wouldn't be a bad set to collect. Advised to go for rarity over scarcity. 4: set of Barber coins5: Complete my Indian head collection. 6: Time to admire and enjoy what I have. |

I am currently working on a U.S. Two Cent collection and a Canadian Municipality Trade dollar set (Maritime only for right know) but if I could have any set instantly right know I think a complete Newfy set would be nice. |

I'd settle for proof examples of every 19th and 20th-century U.S. coin (type, not specific year or mint mark) in MS65 or above.

Sorry to be a party pooper, but I honestly don't like the idea of just dreaming I suddenly have an amazing coin collection. 95% of the fun is learning and hunting and slowly building. If you really owned a super rare high value coin collection, you'd have likely spent years putting it together and you'd have a sense of accomplishment and pride. It's the same reason I'd rather spend time and money putting together an album rather than just going on ebay and buying a full one with all the coins. If I just wanted to wish for something ridiculously valuable, I'd wish for a pallet of gold bricks or some Manhattan real estate. |
