So there's Simpsons Monopoly, Star Wars Monopoly. How bout forum member's versions of Numismatic Monopoly?!

Here are the guidelines. Create your own spaces and post your version on this thread!.
Remember
1. property groups(can be in incresing value)(2-dark purple, 3-lt blue, 3-purple, 3-orange, 3-red, 3-yellow, 3-green, 2-blue)
2.4-railroads
3.2-utilities
4.go, jail(you've been bodybagged!)(just kidding!!)(not!), free parking, go to jail, income tax, luxury tax, community chest and chance

type sets, grading services, forum members(Braddick, Russ, airplanenut etc.), many themes are possible!! This could be a hoot!
Actually, this is my son's idea(56Flyer). Have a blast!

Coin groups instead of color-groups
1- Lincoln cents with memorial reverse
2- Franklin halves
3- Mercury dimes
4- Walking Liberty halves
5- Morgan dollars
6-“classic” proof gold
Coin dealers instead of railroads: Heritage, Legend, American Numismatic Rarities, Pinnacle (or you can substitute Bowers and Merena Galleries for any one of those four if you wish)
Coin graders PGCS and NGC instead of utilities
Things like “You’ve been robbed!”and “You’ve been gypped!” on the Community Chest and Chance cards

on chance you need: "The coin you just got on Ebay came in an ACG holder, pay $300."

On the "Morgan Dollars" spaces, you could have key dates like the 1889-CC, 1893-S, and 1894. You could have "Liberty" proof gold and "Indian/Saint" proof gold. You could buy 1,2,3, or 4 coins of a date or type, or you could buy 5 coins and be a "Market Maker" for that date or type.

Or if you wish, you could group the coins by types.
1.small cents- Indian, Lincoln
2. nickels- Shield, Liberty, Buffalo,
3. dimes-Seated, Barber, Mercury,
4. quarters- Barber, Standing, Washington
5. halves-Barber, Walking, Franklin
6. silver dollars-Seated, Morgan, Peace
7. BU gold-Liberty, Indian, Saint
8."Classic" proof gold- Liberty, Indian/Saint

Cards like “NGC overgraded the coin you submitted- collect $200!”
Or “You bought an ACG coin from an Ebay seller with zero feedback! Pay $500!”

In my previous post you can put BU gold between Morgans and proof gold, and put SLQs between Mercs and Walkers, as I listed only 6 color-groups when there should be 8.

I think the jail card should read "You just sold a fake (or altered) coin! Go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200!"
