[Mr.Mcknowitall]

Pitt Token Half Penny in the best condition for the money.

a pine tree shilling with the best grade and eye appeal combination i can find

[RockMyAmadeus]

The nicest 3-Legged 37-D I could get.

[L1ncolnF4n]

A nice 1795 $1 in around XF or so.

 

Either that or the nicest 55 DDO out there.

[johnny9434]

It would have to be just about the same as Ankur. The 1815/2 bust half or a nice Classic $5

I like your idea

[BillJones]

To many choices,to little money.Can you get a Pan Pak for 10,000?

 

If you are talking about either of the $50 gold slugs, the answer is "No" so far as I know. The worst one I've ever seen was in the inventory of a large Wilmington, Delaware dealer for over a year. From what I've heard it was discovered when a wall was razed in a building. It was really beat to hell, and was in a PCGS "genuine" holder. The asking price was $20,000. The coin is no longer in his case so I don't if it sold or what the final price was.

1913 Liberty nickel

 

not that I could get one for that price, but that is all I feel it would be worth to me.

[CBC]

1794, 1795, 1796 or 1797 half in the highest grade available within the $10k limit. The 1795 is much more common (less rare?) than the other three. A nice 1919-D or 1919-S Walker or any high-grade Charlote gold would be an option, too.

On second thought, I might get a nice set of educational notes.

Thats a tough one...

 

Realisticly, if I were going to spend $10,000 on one coin I would buy an 1858S Twenty dollar Liberty head Double Eagle graded MS60.

 

Unrealisticly... I would buy an MS70 1921 High Relief Peace dollar... I doubt there is one out there but I like to think someone, somewhere has a stash of high mint state silver dollars sitting in a burried iron trunk.

Here's my other example:

 

The finest 1877 Indian Head that $10K can buy.

 

When I was a kid, the '77 was always the mythical coin to get, I even had a book geared to kids about it. I still have it somewhere.

 

That and the 3-Legged Buffalo were the "dream coins" for a kid to own.

[erwindoc]

16D Mercury dime would be a good purchase I think or just about any other key date coin for that matter. The dime is one I have always wanted to own.

[Elbesaar]

 

I'd like to spend 10K on a well struck 1927-S Standing Liberty Quarter

with as much head on her as possible in a MS 63-64+ grade.

 

God knows, I've been looking for years !!!!

 

Something to look along these lines, would make me VERY happy !!!

In a way, you are correct but with patience, hard work and time you can achieve much more than you might think.

 

Plus, then you will appreciate it more.

 

I will finish my Walker set one day. It may take years but I will do it, even if it's the last thing that I do.

i really like the SLQ answers. These coins have always seemed undervalued to me.

 

Walkerfan, that looks like a truly nice 19-S -- I think you did well.

I agree that SQLs are both rare and beautiful.

 

Thanks--re the 19-S.

 

I also think that you have an amazing WLH set, if you are the same Breakdown from ATS.

 

Your 19-S is stunning. I have seen the 23-S from the Charles Schultz collection, as well, and it is one of the best that I've seen.
