I didn't add the 1968D FS because I know it costs more than 5 figures... some of the others are probably very close if not over the 5 figure mark, but it's unknown at this time.
Add all of those in the top pops... and someone would be very upset.

Good idea. How about some of the '82 circulating varieties?
<< <i>I'd go for the first modern coin, a 1836 reeded edge half dollar. >>
Can you get that for under five figures?
I like 1872 two cent 1882 - 87 nickel three cent in MS 1846, 64,65,66,67 half dimes in MS 1839-O half 1840 med letter half 1861-O "confederate obv" half 1878-CC trade dollar and finish off the box with 1840's proof half cents.
Remember I collect early material. Anything after 1836 when they started making those "buttons" on the steam press is modern as far as I'm concerned.
apparently some of yoos-guys missed the cut-off date by the OP wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy back on the first page. nice to know your defintion of Modern but they just don't fit here, Mike.

U.S. Air Force Security Forces Retired
In memory of the USAF Security Forces lost: A1C Elizabeth N. Jacobson, 9/28/05; SSgt Brian McElroy, 1/22/06; TSgt Jason Norton, 1/22/06; A1C Lee Chavis, 10/14/06; SSgt John Self, 5/14/07; A1C Jason Nathan, 6/23/07; SSgt Travis Griffin, 4/3/08; 1Lt Joseph Helton, 9/8/09; SrA Nicholas J. Alden, 3/3/2011. God Bless them and all those who have lost loved ones in this war. I will never forget their loss.
Okay, I have a new list. These are either absolute rarities, or key dates to a nice gem set, so actual grade doesn't really matter. Some may cost over 5K but whatever...
1) a gem Bu 1963-d cent 2) a 1969-s DDO cent 3) a 1970-s DDO cent 4) a gem 1973-s cent 5) a 1990 No S proof cent 6) a Full Step nickel from 65 to 70d 7) a 1981-p full step nickel 8) 1971 No S proof nickel 9) a gem 1970 dime 10) a full band dime of whatever date is the toughest (83-p? 69-p?). If a 1970 is ever found it'd be that. 11) a 1982 NMM dime 12) a No S proof dime 13) a gem 1969 quarter 14) a gem 1983-p quarter (actually just a plain old BU of this is fine) 15) a gem 1971 half dollar (could pick like 1966 or 1969-d or 1982-p too) 16) a 74-d DDR half dollar 17) a Cam or Dcam Accented Hair 1964 Kennedy 18) a 1972 TII Ike 19) a gem 1976 TI Ike 20) a gem 1981-s SBA
I probably forgot something cool. A tough SMS coin would be neat. I'm not a fan of the 1999-date coins either, but those of you that like them could stick a few of them in there.
A 79 WR would be very cool. I chose an 81-s as my SBA rep. A Proof 1976 Ike would be an awesome coin to have in your box. That would cost a lot! I think Wondercoin owns the only one.

It's the only one known, there are supposed to be more. It's well outside of the price range though.
<< <i>apparently some of yoos-guys missed the cut-off date by the OP wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy back on the first page. nice to know your defintion of Modern but they just don't fit here, >>
I didn't miss the cut off date. Everything in my box is "modern" and up to the cut off date. Nothing later.

There's nothing wrong with your list. You just missed all the really neat late moderns.
MajorBigTime has it right; just reach deep in your pocket and see what you can find.
