Wouldn't you need to bring old coins to buy them with? Make and take some era specific bank notes.  |

You guys should be checking your collections to see if any coins have disappeared...  Oregon coin geek.....*** GO BEAVS ! ! ! ***

Keep your eyes open in the major auctions. The 1858 indians are a fairly common pattern and they come on the market relatively frequently.
As for what you would use to pay for them if you could go back in time, just take some gold along with you. (For 1944 silver might be better, fewer questions.)

Just for comparison sake, $1 invested in the Dow Jones Industrial Average in 1944 would be worth $1,432 today.

I thought it was funny that it states these prices are for MS only and if worn at all, worth only a Cent.

The best silver dollar to bring, according to the book wold be the 1870-s valued at $100 to $225, or the 1873-S, which is also worth the same back then(in mint condition) The 1794 Head, flowing hair is only worth a measly $25 to $100 according to the book, while the 1894-S dime carries a value of $100 to $300 The 1876-CC 25 cent piece is valued at $25 to $100...  So many decisions to make before getting in the time machine |
