I had this Saudi Arabian Riyal coin for the longest time (I had thought I had gotten it in circulation, but I must be mistaken about that now), and then just recently checked it up on Numista, to realise it was a 1948 Silver coin. Not as amazing as some of the finds you all have here, but it really did catch me completely by surprise.

1911 Canadian silver dollar. Only 3 minted, and one of the three is a lead test coin.

I would hold a huge coin convention for coin community members only with all the major players and companies at it. Did I mention id fly everyone to it? I'm so generous  then id buy all the cash 4 gold companies and restructure the whole franchise. lastly fill a pillow full of double eagles so I can sleep on my money  |

Unlimited funds would take the fun out of tracking down and securing a piece as economically as possible.
I would however become a full time collector and travel the world.

A double eagle pillow probably would not be a comfy as one might think. I mean gold is soft for a metal, but not that soft. Plus think of all the bag marks you are adding.

Ooh.. that's tough
Day 1: Gotta go for the 1911 silver dollar.
Day 2: 1921 5c & 50c in MS. Just gotta.
Day 3: All those lovely MS Canadian dollars, starting with the 1948 and the 1947's. After lunch I'd
fill the rest of my sets in MS too.
Day 4: Laugh like a maniac, until I realized that sadly I had nothing left to buy. So then I'd finish off
(starting Day 5) by looking for all the fantastic errors that I love so much and could now afford.
There's so many of those it would take me the rest of my life to get them all, and once again I
would be happy. Ahh bliss...

Well since the title of this thread is for a "coin" - singular, I would find and buy the 1964 Peace dollar. I'm sure my winnings would cover the price. |

If it had to be just one coin. I think it would be one of the 1974 aluminum pennies. Just don't tell the secret service.

The next Powerball jackpot is only for a mere 100 Million.
My 'if money was no object,' coin that 'would give me the most pleasure to own,' is...
a 1652 Willow Tree Sixpence. 1652 was the year my 12X great grandfather came to New England from Scotland as an indentured servant/prisoner of war. It would be kinda cool to own a coin that might have passed through his hands.
