darryldarryl Pillar of the Community Canada 2426 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 10:22 am Personally, I would try to get a 2000P 50cent piece, a 1948 silver dollar and or a 1966 small bead silver dollar. Report this Post to the Staff

molydeii Pillar of the Community Turkey 870 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 10:49 am Hmm..does it has to be Canadian.. if that's the case, I'll most probably buy that 1929 (?) 5-c piece that is referred often as "prince of the Canadian coins). However I am unsure of the date. Could it be 1923?.. My book is at the workplace now so I can't quite tell. Hmm.. I also can buy a British Columbia vacation for two, if that counts. :) Report this Post to the Staff
darryldarryl Pillar of the Community Canada 2426 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 11:20 am It would be the 1921 5 cent piece. The vacation counts! Maybe I should change my list. LOL! Report this Post to the Staff
carmykle Pillar of the Community United States 2448 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 12:09 pm After landing, check out the coin shops in Vancouver then go skiing. Best of both worlds. Report this Post to the Staff
Moe145 Pillar of the Community United States 8904 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 12:22 pm I'd go with a 1793 chain cent, a 1893S Morgan, and an 1807 small star CBH. (Am I out of money already? ) If not, a 1907 no motto Double Eagle. Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9864 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 1:25 pm First thing I would buy would be an American-Canadian dictionary,so I could translate the three letter acronyms such as CBH,IHC,LWC,LMC,VAM etc.LOL appears to be the only one common to both languages.Then I would look for a nice MS 1946c Newfoundland 5cent and spend the remaining $6000 upgrading coins I already have.

schnauzer Valued Member United States 212 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 5:15 pm I would go with "Common Date" Morgan dollars NGC/PCGS Graded MS64. They are in the $65-$75 dollar range right now. Usually a big jump in value between the 64 grade and the 65. Sorta makes me think the 64 grades have alot of room to move up. They have in the last couple of years as demand has increased. I used to be able to find them for $45-$55 each. Not anymore. Some silver and gold in your collection won't hurt either. As in coins or bullion. I also like "Junk Silver."

NickleHalfDime Valued Member Canada 94 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 5:28 pm I would buy one million pennies! Just kidding. I think I might use the money to start a Victoria Canadian and Newfoundland coin collection. They're great coins and I have none of either yet. Report this Post to the Staff
cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 6:55 pm I'd buy a 1901-S Barber quarter. Report this Post to the Staff
kitkat1858 Valued Member Canada 371 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 7:58 pm I would buy a NFLD 1873 5 cent coin in AU... even at $10 000 this coin is very underrated. Report this Post to the Staff
fredor Valued Member Canada 142 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 11:29 pm Seconding the 1873 5 cent no H. Report this Post to the Staff
Sander Pillar of the Community Netherlands 561 Posts	Posted 01/17/2011 01:31 am I think some 16/17th century dutch silver coins.. I would try to find a "Floris V(5th)" coin, because he had a small castle close to where I live and been born/raised... Report this Post to the Staff
Scooby Due Pillar of the Community United States 4000 Posts	Posted 01/17/2011 01:47 am I would probably try to buy as many XF key Morgans that I could. But, I have a feeling I might be broke after just one. Report this Post to the Staff
