I think for me it would probably be the 1923 Lincoln $5 Porthole. But I am sure that will change. I know there are a couple gold certificates I would definitely like to have.

Thanks for asking!
The May 10th, 1775 emission $20 Continental Currency note. Unique among early American paper money. Anti-counterfeit marbling along the left margin, and paper supplied by Benjamin Franklin himself:

Someday I would love to own any of the so-called "Education" notes in really nice condition. Maybe if silver ever hits $100 ounce I can justify selling off some to make a purchase...

I would love to get ahold of 1988-A Atlanta Web Press star note, which is the ONLY star note printed on the Web Press.

I hope to someday to own the $2 and the $5 from the educational series.
The note that philadelphian has posted looks so cool. I think I might have to add that as well.

I used to have a Gem CU Web F* note that I had sold when I sold my Currency collection and webpress notes were still being printed, and focused on error coins...
Then when this little gem web note had shown up on ebay, I knew how rare it was and placed a crazy bid seconds before it ended...
After sending to PMG for certification, I purchased another certifed non-error from the same block so I could have a set of G-P Series 1988A Web Notes...

Well it's not a note but rather a sheet for sale on USA Rare's website, unfortunately I just don't have the $24,500 to buy it right now.

I have too many Grail notes that I want. But one of them is the 1896 $5 Educational silver certificate. I'm saving my pennies for one. And in case people don't know how it looks here it is

Is it me, or is the "winged victory" figure on that note holding up a light bulb, with extension cord?

The Obverse features the theme "Electricity Presenting Light to the World," also called "Electricity as the Dominant Force in the World." Electricity is represented by a winged goddess at the center, holding aloft a lighted bulb.


From a website I just Googled.
