Same set I am working on now but I would go for uncs as opposed to xf-au. And I might actually be able to finish it in less than a lifetime. CBH by overton variety including die states
Peace Dollars are the most beautiful American Coin IMHO. Money is an object in my case so I currently only have about 12 of them, all PCGS of course .
My 1921 is only an MS62 ( with green bean ). If money was no object, that Coin would be a much better specimen, probably a very high grade Matte Proof.
And of course, my ultimate dream Coins are the 1793 Chain Cent, the 1794 Flowing Hair Dollar, the 1907 Wire Rim $10 Indian and the 1915 $50 Pan-Pacific, both round and octagonal versions.
Now if only the Smithsonian could put out those Coins for my viewing pleasure on June 12th, I'd be so very happy.
The last three coins I need to finish my type set:
1796-7 Draped Bust Small Eagle half dollar
1796 No Stars quarter eagle
1829-34 Reduced Diameter Capped Bust $5 gold
As you can see, with that list, money is a problem.
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 ... ?
