What's on YOUR bucket list? (Long read)

I have quite a few things I'd like to find at least once in circulation before I quit/die/current currency is phased out. I'm curious as to what you all have on your bucket lists. After I got that Barr note the guy bought a soda with not long ago, ( which was on my list) I thought I'd throw together this type of thread when I had the time to do so. Here is Pt78's "bucket list to find in circulation".

CENTS:

1909 vdb or not. Any 1909 will do.
1922 D or no D. Either is fine.
Flying Eagle Cent. Any condition any date.
Doubled die of any sort. (1955, 1936, 1983 etc.)


NICKELS:

Complete set of every date and mintmark wartime.
I already have the 43' D I found.

Henning Nickel
Shield Nickel. Any date is fine.


DIMES:

A barber of any sort or older. Dont sesrch many dimes.


QUARTERS:

Barber or older. Not too picky. Preferably something pre 1900.

SLQ. Dateless or not. I love the design but don't search many quarters for obvious reasons.


HALVES:

Don't search many halves (teller trays and even then rarely) but I'd like to find a Barber or older once in my life.


DOLLAR COINS:

A 40% Ike

A Peace or Morgan. Whether it be from an Ike bag or teller tray/register at work.


$1 notes:

Complete set of green seal FRN. (1963 to 2013)

A silver Certificate any date

And I really would love to find a Hawaiian wartime note. Love the way it looks.


$2 notes:

Red Seal of any kind. Not picky.

$5 notes:

Red seal of any kind.

Older style (1995 I believe) or older in crisp condition. I just really like the way old $5 and especially $10 notes look.


$10 notes:

1995 or older in crisp condition



And I believe that's all folks. I've found a good amount of stuff on my list over the last 2+ years of hunting. 1913 buff, 43'D war nick, that Barr note, a 1950 D nickel, a Walker, two Indian head cents, two V nickels and others I'm sure I can't remember off the top of my head. Sorry for the long read guys.

Happy Hunting everyone.

Getting old and have dug. found, bought or stole something for the last time. My final list is:

1 .corn fritters
2. fried eggplant
3. one last latina, age not important
4. a couple of cuban cigars
That's it and will be working on it. Please don't "Like" this. I wpuld only feel pitied and think you had no life. Remember, you will be old someday and you will find that the simple things(going to the bathroom)give you more enjoyment than all the treasure you could ever find. Yeah, right...

I still need a silver Ike.

Would like a few more ounces of gold.

One or two of them there latinas mentioned above would be fun too.

I need to start over with the new Etrac. Everything is currently on the bucket list. Makes it simple.

I'd really like to find a pre-1971 Panamanian half dollar. They're not rare or valuable but would be very cool to find.

Right now one of mine is any coin from 1922. I don't have one, foreign or US.
