I dont own a top pop at PCGS, but I do have one that’s a top pop at CAC (11/0). It is 12/5 at PCGS but frankly I think it stands tall against the examples graded 67.

This 1799 Draped Bust Dollar is not Slabbed, but is certainly one of my Top Coins, with very few out there with such attractive blue target toning. — It’s my Forum Avatar coin.

Not really a top pop guy but I made three of these off an original roll. Last I check those three were top pops

How about 3 bucks from 3 different centuries?

The 3 buck challenge, eh? lol!
The only 1851 O/O $5 currently certified at PCGS out of a surviving population of maybe a dozen or so, so technically top pop for now.
Can you post a picture of your amazing proof 1922 in the slab?
@Walkerlover
@tradedollarnut Beautiful bucks!
@Eldorado9 Nice spread!
Surprisingly, top pop for 1848 half dimes is only MS 66: one PCGS large date, one PCGS medium date, one NGC large date, and two NGC medium date. I own all three of the NGC coins.

Crypto, gorgeous!. I love your 44-S USPI 50 Centavos, so pristine!
@Floridafacelifter - Nice coins! But I would have been even more impressed if the 20th century coin had continued the pattern with the elusive 1995 silver dollar.

Eldorado9,
I originally submitted the 07P Barber Half Dollar raw back in the 1990's for a dealer-friend. It came back MS67 (before the days of the '+' designation). Great eye appeal!
@Floridafacelifter
I never get bored seeing those coins.
You have some beauties that's for sure.
I'm glad you own them because you post them here.
I wish some of the lurkers would also post their Morgan's.
I'm sure they are out there.

This is the finest original set for the years 1936-1942, so in that category it's pop 1/0.

I can't compete very well here.
This 1795 half dollar is an Overton 120. It is the finest known for the die variety by good margin. It's graded AU-58 with the next graded EF-40 cleaned.
CAC
I feel like I'm cheating a bit, as there are many finer examples, yet this is the one and only PF BN Cameo.
This one is a top pop, but only for Everyman Registry sets 😉

3 Bucks to play. Awesome bucks @Floridafacelifter and @tradedollarnut.
1846 MS65+ CAC. Pop 1/0
1859 MS66+ CAC. Pop 1/0
1869 MS66+ CAC. Pop 1/0
Awesome!!!
I have to venture out into World coinage to compete in this thread. Here is my Top Pop.
Wow, I didn’t know you had a 7 touches 1. Bravo!

I have this PR66 1/0:
And this PR67BN 12/0:
And this 1910 is a 67RB 5/0 and the ‘13 is a 67RB 4/0
Oh, and this is also a 1/0, but it’s a pattern J181, Snow-1, and is an R8:
Plus an honorable mention goes out to this OGH 67RD that is a 7/1 but go look at the 67+ and then you tell me which one is finer 🥸

Sigh. I miss that 1859
