I think I'll start with a few MS67 Saints and see how that tickles my fancy.
Then I'll start on my complete date/mm set of Capped Bust Halves/Quarters/Dimes and Seated Halves/Quarters/Dimes in original XF. Yes, I know I could afford all Mint State but I like the look of the nice dirty XF's. Don't want to get too fancy, someone will think I have money.

<< <i>Up To 540 now Wes ! Good Luck my friend ! >>
That extra $40M is just gravy. I'll be happy with just $500M.

<< <i>I'll buy all Peace dollars in 67. >>
nice !
Then I would offer Charmy so much for her very cool error coin that she would have to take it.
And then a call to Fred, Mike and Jon to cherry pick their inventory.
And then a House in Hawaii and one in La Jolla.
And then ..............................
Then I'd buy this one.
Then I'd get serious...
<< <i>I'll buy all Peace dollars in 67. >>
dont forget the Proof's
I would have to get them also

Good choice but you could afford the double set in the original copper framed holder that displays both sides of each coin.

You could still make some uber-cool collections, and get access to the super-secret-circle-of-trust, but by no means would you be at the top of the heap.

<< <i>I'd take less than half the winning and just buy Collectors Universe. Then I'd be the boss of the forums and could get my coins graded whatever I want
Hmmm. $100M just to write whatever you wanted on the Internet? Sounds kinda pricey to me
then offer to pay PCGS to upgrade the forum software.

not when you consider every coin can have the presidential review!
PCGS Registries
Box of 20
SeaEagleCoins: 11/14/54-4/5/12. Miss you Larry!
That would be the very scary aspect of unintended consequences.
The loss of a sacrifice/reward dynamic would make me numb.
<< <i>I would change my collecting habits a bit more astutely, opting instead to collect a harem.
we have a winner
You could not go out in public without a security detail and one for your wife and more for your kids.
Maybe just buy a private island.
The win may not be worth it.
Wait...scratch that. Heck I just might put in an offer for part ownership of PCGS.

Yeah, then you could mint your own coins and make the errors on demand!
A would enjoy building a complete Southern Gold Set, from all 3 mints.
$540,000,000
BEST WISHES & GOOD LUCK TO THOSE WHO PLAYED!!!
WOULD BE NICE.......
-_- PRAYIN FOR A MIRACLE!

A win THAT BIG could cause some problems.

For $540... it's a road trip!
And I'd put it all in a trust fund, and have lots of interest to live off of while buying any coin I wanted!
I'd merge the top 4 sets in my area of collecting, making the absolutely top dog in the world... then put a perpetual ad in the Coin World with insane numbers, thus becoming a "market maker."

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.
What I'm really after is personal satisfaction, and so far I've determined that comes mostly from doing a job well, family relationships, learning, and enjoying good friends. Most, if not all, of that would be harder as a multi millionaire. Sounds a bit puritanical huh? Oh well. I guarantee whoever wins this will be less happy 5 or 10 years later.
my 20 tickets were delivered this afternoon. Yes, big forum giveaway
No Way Out: Stimulus and Money Printing Are the Only Path Left
it would be pretty cool out bidding tradedollarnut though....
I would have the best giveaway you've ever seen on these furums...
Coins?
I would try to buy as many of the 1894-S dimes as I could and would pay up to 70,000,000 times face apiece if I had to.
Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters.
<< <i>I calculated that if each of the 175,711,536 possible combinations was written onto a 1"x1"x1" cube and the cubes were placed side by side and one on top of the other to make a "super cube," the dimensions of the super cube would be 46.675 ft. x 46.675 ft. x 46.675 ft.
>>
I planned on buying all 175,711,536 number combinations in order to guarantee a win of the Mega Millions. Seems like a good plan to spend $175 million to win nearly $400 million (which is the cash option). Even after taxes that's over $300 million in your pocket. The possibility of splitting the jackpot might hurt the plan a bit

At $100K FDIC coverage per account, how would you safely deposit a large lump sum? There aren't many local banks here that I would trust with that much money. I think I'd seriously consider hiring someone to negotiate a private sale of the ticket.
