If you could open a box under the tree to find a "reasonable" ( not a dream trophy) coin,what would it be?

I think mine would be a proof Seated Liberty half, preferably a Civil War date.

    My family did pretty good. I got $250 in gift certificates to the local dealer who has been helping me put together my pcgs Lincoln set. They were afraid of buying something I didn't need, so they got the next best thing. It was nice surprise.

    Good gift!

    Buy the book before you buy the coin.

    But that didn't happen.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
