I already have a Daniel Carr 1915 Mercury dime. I'm thinking about getting more of his coins. They are a lot of fun when showing to dealers at coin shows. His 1915 Standing Liberty quarter is next.
I could use a Large Cent with a 1645 date.

I am pretty sure Carr versions of these exist.

Hey, if you have the 69 Ike you gotta have the 1970 too.

Great topic!

Concentrating on US coins, I think an 1815 cent would be high on my list, or a 1933 Washington quarter!

Here's one UK coin I'd like - a 1961 halfpenny!

It was the only date in the 20th century (until they were discontinued in 1967) that the halfpenny was not struck for circulation!

Well, my second car was a 1970 VW Beetle.

Agree about the 1909-D Indian and Lincoln, and the 1853 Arrows & Rays dollar.
(Pretty sure the former two exist in Carr versions, and I suspect the last one only doesn't because finding the right planchet is tricky.)

Hilarious pair: 1861-D and 1907-D quarter eagles. The former would stand for Dahlonega, the latter for Denver.
(IOTL, no Liberty Head quarter eagles were made at the Denver mint, though there were 1907-D half eagles.)

In terms of Russian coinage, of course I want to see some 2000 and 2004 rubles, as well as 2010/12/13/15 kopeks.

I dreamed about a Soviet 15 kopek coin with a 17th century date once; don't recall whether it was 1645 exactly.

U.S. Coins dated 1789 - 1792 would be awesome. Took a while to get into gear.

Speaking of getting into gear:

I had a 1970 Super Beetle, JB! Bought it as a project car, had it painted fire-engine red and drove it for a year or so. Loved it, loved it, loved it!

The first Super Beetles, although produced in August 1970, were actually for model year 1971.

You're exactly right! Forgot about that. It had a late 1970 build date, but was a '71.
