The 1990 no S cent may be worth more though, right?

Put me down for the 2000-W Sackie. Only 12 extant, in gold, and they flew in space. Very high on the coolness factor, IMHO.

<< <i>Not enough choices. "Not interested in anything modern" is what I was looking for. >>
You should have had a "show me the results" choice in the poll. All the stuff you listed is, well just "stuff." There are a few modern $5 gold and half dollars that I actually like better than the choices provided because I really like the designs. The cheapest "nice" coin IMO is the 1986 Stature of Liberty half dollar. The only thing that would have made it better was if it had been made in silver.

the ebay ad says this is the rare 1992 D Close AM cent. Link to NOT SO MODERN rarity on ebay
I wouldn't mind cherry picking one of these in AU condition ! It ain't about value , it's about rarity in the midst of the common coins for me

IMO this is a Wide AM cent which is worth about 1c. On the Close AM, the A and M are practically joined at the base.

HELLO ? That is why the LINK says "NOT SO MODERN rarity" I say again, I wouldn't mind cherry picking one of these. I know this one is NOT ONE OF THEM, and I agree this is the normal or wide AM. I guessed something was up when I got a message in PM asking about my eye sight

Sorry about that, 2sides2acoin! I thought the Not So Modern part meant that 1992 was a while back. I agree with you, that coin ain't the real McCoy!
