This could be fun.

Which would you rather have of these two sold by Heritage? Well actually you would have to get five of the dollars to equal what the 1950-D cent sold for!! $15,000+

The classic wins again.

I think it is because I have a full set of Lincolns (and Jeffersons from the previous topic), whereas classics are only represented in my type set.

I'll go with the half dollar again.

BadThad wants the cent!


P.S. What am I saying, he probably already has one!

A 'no brainer' for me - the 1795 Dollar.

The Flowing Hair dollar, of course. The 50-D was a 67+ RD, another top pop.

Actually kinda hard for me to answer. I'd have to say the dollar, but I will state I have a STRONG dislike for flowing hair coins.

Okay, you gotta be more specific. Why would any coin collector have a STRONG dislike for flowing hair coins. What did she ever do to you?

And I was going to send you one for free!!........never mine!

MS67? I assume all of those scuffs, ticks and in particular the scratches across the forehead and cheek are on the encapsulation, not the coin.

MS-67 with that scratch across the cheek? Gotta be a nut case to pay 15K for that.

I just think they look butt ugly in anything under VF-30, the problem is they are stupidly expensive at that point. The cheapest is the Half Dollar and even that one starts at $3000 in VF-30, then they start at $6000 in the same grade for the other denoms.

It's neither a dollar nor a half. Looking at the photos, they're similar in size making it a half-dime.
