What should I buy?

MICHAELDIXON

I have this terrible itching to buy something "special" in the coin arena, but can't find anything which catches my eye. The proof Morgan is nice, but I want something to add to it. What is your suggestion? I've looked at the major dealers sites, Ebay, etc and just can't find anything!

Avoid Franklin's at all costs!

How about a gold coin? Into those? There are alot of territorial gold that is both historic and interesting.

Rainbow copper of the late fifties. Tough to find, somewhat cheap to buy.

It really depends on your budget for this special purchase. How much do you want to spend?

IrishMike

Proof cameo seated or bust quarter.

MrKelso

Stay away from MS 67 or better Morgans

CHRIS45

boiler78

How about a nice pattern coin? Do you like patterns?

gmarguli

A PCGS MS69 State Quarter.

OK, how about telling us the price range you're looking in?

Mojoe

How about a proof cam trade $1 or a proof cameo walking liberty half?

MICHAELDIXON

I think I'll buy a Proof Buffalo nickel in PR67. There's a show close on 6-8 DEC and there should be several available. I just can't help myself!

You need a CT commemorative like my icon. See if you can find one where the leaves on the tree are toned like autumn colors. mdwoods

For a twist, go Darkside and get this Saxe Weimar NGC PF63 1910 3 Mark, or if you can afford it, this Victoria 1847 Proof GOTHIC CROWN!

Both are very nice and very tempting dark side coins, imo. I have both on my drool (imean) watch list.

One of these babies will cure all that ails you. Wish I had one.

Pan Pac Gold! Come get me!

Baseball,
I dunno. Here is a quote about the Sesqui from Q.David Bower's book, "Commemorative Coins of the United States, A Complete Encyclopedia".
"Most extant examples are in grades ranging from AU-50 to MS-60, and many have been cleaned or lightly polished. The relief of the designs is very unsatisfactory, and even the finest preserved pieces lack detail and appear flat, usually with graininess (from surface characteristics of the original planchet) on the cheek of Washington."

ANyway, it's not costing me anything to have PCGS grade it, as I still have my 4 free Collector's Club membership submissions. It will be interesting to see what they think.

going, going, gone

Baseball, I'll pm you when I get the results.

for me if you want a great super rare undetrvalued coin buy any deep ultra cameo proof silver/nickel coins in gem from 1915 and before

but if you are gointg to buy a proof 67 buff nick just make sure you get one monster toned like this one

proof 67 satin
because of the increases in price the only proof 67 buffs that are undervalued are the ones that are monster toned!!

sincerely michael
