"government is not reason, it is not eloquence-it is a force! like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master; never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action." George Washington
Mine would have to be a smorgasbord , many countries represented in bronze , copper , silver & gold dating back 1000 years , all washed down with a big glass of fresh moderns.
Well, I have a bunch of Morgan dollars, a bunch of early commems, and a bunch of other stuff. Standard supper club meat and potatoes with a salad and whatever dessert happened to be freshly made that day. The observant diner will notice some exotic herbs, spices, and seasonings on the meat that many would miss or not care about.

Some of my collection would match that of the 3 course meal, twelve hours later.

compared to others, mine would look like a 4 day old wilted salad, rotten meatloaf, and a melted Hershey's kiss.....
Too many positive BST transactions with too many members to list.
...all junk food!!
Mine would start with an appetizer of Colonial Coins topped with a Pine Tree Shilling.
Main course would be a plate piled high with a complete set of Large Cents.
Dessert would be some junk......Buffs, Wheaties, etc, and one foreign: a Greek Owl Tetradrachm .
......I collect old stuff......
and
Chocolate Coins are the only two food-coin combos I can think of.
I know that's not exactly what you asked, but a fun twist anyway
followed by a thick, medium-rare (ok... XF raw) Morgan dollar and a red-wine colored Lincoln matte proof to drink...
topping it off w/ dessert... a blast white and frosty Barber quarter in MS66 and tall glass of milk-spotted ASEs
