I'd say Nothing that's floating around the banks now, or even in the last 80 years.

I Like the 1796 Gold Half eagles with the (Cone top/ Zippy the Pin head)
anorexic bird, Capped Bust Type.
Unfortunately if I ever dig one, I'll probably drop over in shock

There are so many great coins to choose from. Dad bought a Peace dollar at a chattels auction when I was 10, and gave it to me, I have a soft spot for them.

It's a beautiful coin with a cool message.

Those do tend to be made favorites but many won't admit dollar value counts.... until they find one worth $! I know my most valuable finds are at the top of my favorites, but there's also several that aren't worth anything close to as much. In a way those are nice because if you collect most of what you dig there's no temptation to sell.


As for dreaming about a coin why not just cut to the chase and take a lottery win instead. :thumbsup:

Iron Patch, you've just taken all the "Cone top/ Zippy the Pin head anorexic bird, Capped Bust Type" fun out of this thread, darn. But I suppose you do have a viable point there especially about the fun coins a person has found like a 'V' Nickel found by eye at the top of a mountain trail leading out from a gold mining camp of the 49 ers, that would be mine...................63bkpkr
