    Been looking for a number of pieces. I guess my "white whale" would be a well struck 1918-S Buffalo Nickel in MS63 condition. I know they exist, but I've not seen one in years. Grade inflation perhaps.

    Damn. That half is incredible. I'd crack it outta there so fast it'd make your head spin.

    A Double Eagle Liberty Head without the motto on the reverse. One with a lot of luster on it. Maybe 1857, since it's somewhat affordable in MS-60.

    A friend of mine owns a Franklin 50c that is double struck on a 10c planchet with the second strike about 50% off center.
    Double struck Franklins are extremely rare and it is just an amazing coin being on the wrong planchet too.

    Nothing too exotic.
    Just an AU 10$ Indian as nice as some of the ones I've seen in other members' collections.

    #1 on my Dream-On List is a $50 Pan-Pac octagonal. An 1848 $2.5 "CAL" is way up there too.

    Among things that can maybe actually happen are:
    1568 Scotland ryal "sword dollar"
    1571 Scotland ryal "sword dollar"
    When in doubt, don't.

    Definitely a St. Gaudens 1907 HR $20 in MS66. Not one of those later sandblasted proofs where the coin looks like it was crafted out of mustard.

    One of the coins I lack in my typeset is the open collar strike bust dime 1809 -1828. A nice original EF 40 or 45 type will be on my radar next in PCGS.

    1849 Half Cent in PC 5 RB. I have seen two of them in all my years of collecting, the nicest one being in a PC 3 BN holder.

    I'd like to have an 1851 U.S. Assay Offfice octagonal $50 gold slug. Since I have the Pan-Pac $50 gold piece, which was af commemorative to those coins, I'd like to have an example of the real thing.

    1936-D Buffalo nickel 3-1/2 legger. But it has to be a cherry pick like most of my other Buff varieties, not a purchase. 10 years and counting.

    One of everything, with each example the finest known.

    If you want be to be slightly more specific, I'd really love to find a 1921 Peace Dollar with out-of-this-world hammered strike in a gem or higher grade. That is one coin that I'd find a way to buy, regardless of what the checkbook balance was at the time it showed up.
