Out of the choices I said Morgans. But if Barber halves would have been an option I would have went with that. Not really a dime collector here

Large cents, then Morgans, Indian cents, Lincolns, Mercury dimes. Morgan collecting is creeping up my list.

I didn't vote simply because so many were omitted but out of the choices, it would be Barber dimes.

No IHC? *sigh*

Well, of the listed choices, I'd say Merc dimes. Every time I hold one, I think of my grandpas--both were in WWII (Grandpa John was a ship's cook in the Navy; the Grampa you guys hear me talk about was an Army private stationed in Okinawa, Japan), and for some reason when I hold a Merc dime I always feel close to them both and feel very strongly that the coin in my hand might once have bought one of my grampas a sandwich and a cup of coffee on his safe return home. I never get this feeling with buffs, early wheats, etc.--only Mercs. Who knows why? I don't, but I adore my grampa and miss Grandpa John dearly, so anything that makes me feel close to them is good by me.

I wish there was a way to select more than one, but out of those choices, I picked Morgans.

The next one that I have not bought yet?!!!

I have actually been finding myself straying from the beloved Lincoln wheat series (because I am only 4 non key coins away from completing an MS set)....and beginning to appreciate several other series.

Thanks to this CCF auction: http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...ctionID=5747

....I am now embarking on a type set. The album has yet to arrive, but I have been actively seeking problem free examples to complete this next adventure.

Of course, this path has many forks in the road as well....I don't seem to be able to turn down an XF or better IHC, an UNC Buffalo, a high grade Kennedy or Ike, or......

yeah....I know....but I think there might be more than 12 steps to this program!!

None of the above: 2-3-20 cent pieces are all in my ballpark. How about 19th century Proofs, too?
