For me it's a 1971 dime. The mintage is a little lower than the others but there were still over one million (162,690,000) made.

The only coin I can think of in that situation was a MS grade 1920D Cent. Don't know why but just couldn't find any for years. I used to ask at every coin show and was constantly told no problem, you'll find one here. Took almost two years to find one.

1931D and 1910 Lincoln's in MS Red.

The 1910 is very, very tough even though there's plenty of that year and the "book" price is low. The book prices should be at least 5x-10x higher....they lie, be it Red Book or CDN, IMO.

The real tough one is the 1936 Lincoln proof. I'm convinced they don't exist! LOL

For me it was 2003P Jeff Nickle. I roll searched for 5 years until I finally got one this year.

78D JFK half is also very hard.

Good question! I have a side remark about common coins. I go through the occasional roll and have you ever noticed that in one roll, you'll get several of the same "unusual" date? For example, in my last roll, I found four 1967 pennies in the same roll. Now, I can go 20 rolls without finding one. This has happened a lot to me.

For me, I'm still looking for the 'P' Jefferson nickel with the Buffalo
