My most valuable would be my 1187/7 zeri mahbub Islambul mint coin. Total number of coins known is 1   . Seller was the top dealer (worldwide) in Ottoman coins (Steven Album) and he must have been asleep the day the coin passed through his hands. Paid $117 for it (about bullion price) on a 18th century coin. I was REALLY happy to win it. USPS lost the coin in transit for 17 weeks  but I was relieved when it turned up. |

Makes me with my dad had saved more than one of the TWENTY St. G's and liberty head's he got for payment one time in the 60's, some farmer needed work done (or something like that) and paid my dad $400 at face value  , but he spent all but one of them... keep an eye on 'How far back can we go? Second Edition!' It's a Liberty Head so not anytime soon, I have time to dig it out of the vault and dust it off before I can post it. I also have an 1851 $1 with a drill hole for a necklace mounting  ... I have a couple mini Saint-Gaudens a couple mini 1982 commemorative cents, and a couple mini Krugerrands, all either plated or low karat. |

Mine is 1882 Ten dollars, my grandfather gave to me. I think it worths like $900, but it has to be graded. The pictures are not the best.   |

Coincollector2000 Unfortunately I don't know how to take images or upload them. It looks no different to the other years, except of course the V (7). Has 2 piercings but about AU50 otherwise. I will get it slabbed someday, but I don't want the coin to go anywhere near the US postal system to get to/from the US. |

Ok, thanks for the response though. I just wanted to see the only one in the world. |

I have collected hammered British coins for some time so my Henry VII Angel, Henry VIII half-sovereign, Edward III and James I would have to be the highlights. That's numismatic value, mind you. If you are thinking more along the lines of bullion then my Mexican 50 Pesos or American double eagle. If someone can give me some tips on loading pictures here, I can post some.
