Wow, you could probably start a whole new thread on that one. We all have made mistakes.  |

A 1901-S quarter f-vf with a nice dark circulation cameo. Hopefully someday I find one for sale and have had the time to save the money needed...  |

denkan, I knew a guy who was offered an 1895 Morgan. He was in college and couldn't afford it, as much as he wanted it. He was still kicking himself 50 years later.

Well, I would love a lustrous, red or red brown Coronet cent. Braided is more likely to happen, though.

My must have that I finally did acquire:  I was born just outside of Atlanta, almost within sight of the mountain. I also someday hope to get a Dahlonega mint gold, and a Charlotte - my current city and the one my wife calls home. But more than any of the above, this coin was a dream come true  Alexander the Great silver Tetradrachm, minted during his lifetime from silver seized from the Persian treasury at Tarsus. Followed by this one  Silver denarius of Julius Caesar as Dictator Perpetuo, February - March 15, 44 BC |

I really like that tetradrachem Finn235. If you haven't read Xenophon's Anabasis (an account of the Greek expedition to Persia under Cyrus the Younger, ca 50 years before Alexander) I'd recommend it. Here's what the Cilician Gates look like today, just north of Tarsus. The main route from Syria to Asia Minor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cilician_Gates"Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime." Fred Astaire

Growing up, the key dates for LWC were on my must have list. 1909 S VDB, 1914 D, 1922 Plain. Picked them all up last year. I guess the only one left is a 1955 Double Die. Not sure if that is a must have or not. As I journey through my US Type Set, I have many on my must have list. lol Seated dollar and Half Dollar coins that are problem free and have eye appeal are probably my immediate grail coins (XF to low MS examples). |
