Most Undervalued

small change -

What about early commemoratives. I just started in these and everywhere I hear people say that they are very cheap now compared to what they were, not sure if they are undervalued or just unappreciated. I hope they stay "dead money" for a few more years so I can collect them cheaply.

I want the Daniel Boone, the Oregon Trail, the Texas Centennial one, the Santa Fe Trail, a nice Monroe Doctrine one, and several others. They can be truly beautiful in the nicer condition. I almost bought an Oregon Trail from the dealer, but I thought $165 a little high. But it was pretty!

Agree with all of microb's choices. The Peace dollars in particular... even though the series had minimal circulation, the difference between what you'd pay for a semi-key Morgan, and what you'd pay for a later Peace with similar mintage is astonishing (yes, I'm aware of mass melts, etc... I still think some of them are practically a steal). That's as much as I'm going to say on the matter, at least until I have a lot more of them

i think the '68-'74 S-mint Lincolns are sleepers... going through circulated rolls on the east coast I probably find one for every ten wheat cents I pick out.

i was also surprised to see how cheaply some of the Liberty Head and Shield nickels are selling... The poor things just can't compete with a cute li'l buffalo, I guess.

Yeah, and considering their mintages were a fraction of Philadelphia and Denver's. They always have a special place in my heart; they seem more unique compared to a normal circulating coin.
