If money were no object, what coin/ paper currency would you get? Me, being new to coin collecting and only knowing Morgan dollars, I would choose an 1893s MS65 or above. What's your? |

Pan Pacific octagonal $50.
I have actually had one of these sitting in the palm of my hand - over 2.5 ounces of gold, with a spectacular neo classic Greek inspired design on both sides!
Not rare, but scarcity is a help.

A 1793 chain cent has been on my "to purchase" list almost since the beginning.

I would be completely boring. Just an 1804 Bust Dollar.

Did you say money was no object ? I'll take an 1894-S Barber dime in MS-65. |

Definitely one of the Vermont Republic coins from its brief existence after the revolution.
