    $4 gold piece
    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    Well I haven't owned those either, but was thinking more on a smaller financial scale...

    Guess I should have been more specific in the op image

    $3 gold piece. The $4 I do not consider a coin and the $50 did not circulate.

    Ditto on $3 gold and I agree the $4s are patterns and the $50 is a comemmorative.

    Yep, the AGE 1/2 oz. is $25 and the 1 oz. is $50, also have $25, $50, and $100 platinum.

    So just the $4 missing from my US denomination collection (and as has been said, not really a coin, or at least not a circulating one, like the bullion)

    1/2 Cent
    3c
    20c
    $3
    $4
    $50

    I guess the only odd denomination that I've owned is a 2c piece.

    I have never owned a slabbed 3 CN. I do own (or have owned) slabbed examples of the others. I recently picked up this one from CRO.

    What are the odd denominations?
    I see people posting $5, $10 and $20 gold as answers, but I don't consider them odd at all... while I do consider $2.50 odd.

    That said, $2.50 is the only odd denomination I have owned.
    When in doubt, don't.
  • gummibeargummibear Posts: 786 ✭✭✭
    Double Ditto on $3 gold and I agree the $4s are patterns and the $50 is a commemorative. But I still wouldn't mind have one of each one day.

    First of all, don't collect gold. The only denomination of coin I have not owned is any three center and a twenty cent piece. I used to own an 1840 Half Dime, but it was so small that it hurt my naked eye to look at it, so I sold the coin.
