What is going to be your first coin of 2006...

atarian · December 11, 2005 10:28AM

either first paid coin in 2006 and or first recieved coin ( in the mail) . also list what your goals are for this year ( like a top 5 of realistic coins you would like to buy this year.)

i am going to target strictly no motto half eagles.

the first? hm. how about an 1853 or 1847 P half eagle in AU.

atarian · December 11, 2005 1:11PM

nice way to start off the year.

i was looking at $2.50 1893 and 1896 MS 62/MS61 respectibly. but im working on trying to control myself DJW has a NICE $10 gold coin (1907 $10 MS62/63 PCGS has it at MS62).i believe that was 495 if my first place bails on a nice combo price *(I think from 870 to 800(maybe 825 if i like the coins that much) is fair). if it doesnt I go back to DJW. sigh. im having a hard time holding back on buying when the MS62's ive been seeing are so clean. if they were low end 62s i can see waiting but these are high 62s maybe some a low 63. cant hold back sometimes.

JustGotRipped · December 11, 2005 1:19PM

Not sure yet what my first 2006 coin will be. I'd like to finish my Franklin Album, and Roosie Album....but other than that nothing special.

zkcoins · December 11, 2005 6:50PM

Great question, I would answer by saying that is will be most likely something to go in my 2005 mint set. My first major coin purchase next year will probably be a 1909 S VDB in ms65 or better. I have been wanting one of those since I was 12 and now I should have the means to own one.

BAJJERFAN · December 11, 2005 9:38PM

Pocket change doesn't count?

291fifth · December 11, 2005 11:27PM

Whatever I get in change on Jan. 1.

TheRaven · December 11, 2005 11:49PM

Probably the same as it has been

2006 Silver American Eagle, the first weekend they are available.....

ziggy29 · December 12, 2005 12:14AM

Not sure. I suspect it will be something I pick up at the Houston Money Show next month.

Abaco24 · December 12, 2005 9:30AM

Depends on how the next ANR auction goes Jan 3rd.

INXS · December 12, 2005 9:39AM

Probably the 1 Oz GAE.

airplanenut · December 12, 2005 9:41AM

Whatever shows up at FUN. Most likely a toned morgan or proof Indian cent, as those are the two types which I most actively persue for my collection.

Hard to say. I am still working on 2005. One coin I would like to obtain in 2005 is the 1929 Half Eagle while the prices are still reasonable. Someday people will realize how many of these got melted as it has one of the lowest pops in Indian Half Eagles at both PCGS and NGC.

coinspeculator · December 12, 2005 9:51AM

200 box of silver maple leafes.
i got them when they were first released at the begining of the month..

Hobo Nickel

Awesome artwork at the cost of a nickel

Going to try my luck at carving these things in 2006

keets · December 12, 2005 10:19AM

i'm not going to buy any coins in 2006.

coppercoins · December 12, 2005 10:26AM

Let me get back to you about this after FUN. I never know what my next coin will be.

Lakesammman · December 12, 2005 12:47PM

If I told, you'd bid against me......

100proof1957 · December 12, 2005 12:58PM

Proof and MS gold for my kidds set
!

dizzyfoxx · December 12, 2005 1:17PM

I'm thinking maybe a nice toned commem

RedneckHB · December 12, 2005 1:24PM

A nice toned proof 1877 IHC.

ccex · December 12, 2005 1:45PM

1932 $10 gold (the last hole in my Dansco 7070)

BigE2 · December 13, 2005 6:45AM

First- get a couple rolls of SAE's and a few PAE's.

Then after reading and admiring all of the Dansco 7070 sets you all are working on, I'm going to start one. This'll be the first time in about 15 years I'll be collecting for collectings sake. Last set was Indian cents that took 15 years to complete!(started when I was 9. found an 1885 behind the baseboard of a house my Dad was hanging wallpaper.)

mhammerman · December 13, 2005 6:57AM

I'm creepin' up on a $10 indian one of my scouts spotted but I'm not talkin'.

coinmickey · December 13, 2005 6:58AM

Something Ancient and Roman...from the NYINC...

weresteve · December 13, 2005 7:03AM

Most likely smoe darkside material ... just depends on when I place the order vs the first coin show of the new year that I attend.

xbob · December 13, 2005 7:14AM

I'm planning on ordering a new Ben Franklin Commem when the go on sale in early January. When they ship though is anyones guess.

MikeInFL · December 13, 2005 8:55AM

The most attractive 19th century proof types that Mark Feld has at FUN and I can afford.

Take care.....Mike

Barndog · December 13, 2005 10:30AM

I'm sure I will find some nice upgrades to my incomplete set of Capped Bust Half Dimes (by die marriage) at the FUN show. I'd like to add one of the four die marriages that I don't have at some point during 2006.

Coxe · December 13, 2005 11:04AM

That is an absolutely impossible question for a VAM cherrypicker to answer. When Teletrade posts its New Year's Day lots, I'll have a pretty good idea of some candidates though.
