I have never owned a gold slug although I do have the two Pan-PAC $50 golds. The price was too much for me for years. Now it's grading and pricing issues.
I have never owned a $4 gold or Stella. It's a pattern, which I largely don't collect, and it's expensive.
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 ... ?

Never owned a Morgan Dollar. Not once in 43 years of collecting.
Nor have I. I firmly believe that the obverse is the ugliest design in the history of the US mint. Too bad, too, because I actually like the reverse eagle.
Just because I'm old doesn't mean I don't love to look at a pretty bust.
Many types but one particular one I'm a fan of for many years is the Gobrecht dollar. Haven't gotten around to it because I've been working on other parts of the collection so far.

Trade dollar.
I'm not big on silver dollars and those are tough to find, authenticate if not in a slab, just not my cup of tea
HAPPY COLLECTING
There are a few and always because money is an object.
Early copper. Someday, maybe. Whole different world than classic US silver.
Barber half. Too many other half dollars interest me -- especially Walkers.
Successful BST transactions with forum members thebigeng, SPalladino, Zoidmeister, coin22lover, coinsarefun, jwitten, CommemKing.
A number of series due to cost.
Shame on you!
Early gold (pre-1830) ... too expensive.
20c piece and a few others, price and simply finding an example I like are the main issues.

Three dollar gold coin. Either too expensive or not the right coin. Still on my list of future purchases.
All dollars after Peace.......too ugly.
