No option for "all of the above"? I chose "other" because I would want one of the unique coins like the 1870S $3 or Half Dime |

Nice choice on the 1870-S Three Dollar gold! (kinda ranks up there with the 1849 Double Eagle in the Smithsonian) Would it be the one that was supposed to be placed in the corner stone of the New San Francisco Mint? The one know has graffiti on the reverse.  http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/CoinDe...7992&redir=tEdited by oih82w8

1836 Gobrecht dollar. I wish, however, they would have left off the stars from the reverse, too. Then it would have been the perfect coin. Anyway it is as close to perfection that a coin has or will ever come. |

I picked other because I would rather have the Australian 1813 holey dollar and dump  |

IF money was of no object and I had enough to do almost anything, then the answer would be simple. I'd buy a small Aisland, far from big cities and hire all you CCF Memebers to go out looking for coins for me. With a lot of money, why should I waste my time looking for dates and mint marks when I could hire you all to do it for me.    |

I'd go with a 1913 "V" nickel. Then I'd put it in my Buffalo nickel album and when people looked at it I'd say, "Oh....how did THAT get in there?" |

If money were no object then I pick other, as in all of the above. I would go on a buying spree the likes of which have never been seen before in the whole history of numismatics.

I'd probably do as mysilveryears noted ... roam the country buying up the old relics set aside and forgotten. I would put together a great collection of interesting economical coins and pass on a single priceless one.
Isn't the old saying ... the guy who accumulates the most toys, etc... is the winner?

i love the history of the 1933 eagle read about that one as a kid so id definately go for that one, but when it comes to US history and its origins then id take any 18th century coin
