How many coins did you miss in 2007 but still think about in 2008?

[Zoins]

One of the more interesting aspects of looking back on the previous year's collecting efforts is to think about which coins got away that I still think about and wish I got.

 

In the end, there are 5 coins that I still think about from last year.

 

- 1 Morgan dollar

- 1 US pattern

- 1 China medal

- 2 US medals

There's a couple, mainly darkside stuff, that I missed. I should have bid higher on a couple of them, but a few of them I was just busy and forgot about them. I still kick myself.

The main I miss is an Uncirculated Jamestown $5 gold coin that some one stole from my case last year at a show.

 

Otherwise there were no coins that I failed to purchase and now regret.

I guess I missed that one...must have been good and organic.

 

 

Ummm...one I missed, I intended to bid on a Chambers long worm, the bidding mechanism on the internet didn't work. No guarantee I would have gotten it, but hell knows, I may have. But didn't---and I doubt an opportunity like that will come up again.

Only one that I really wanted, but I bid my max which I believe was strong money and someone bested me.

 

 

Switzerland (Beromuenster) Quarter Thaler dated 1720. It was issued by an abbey in this municipality, a part of the Canton of Lucerne; its castle housed Switzerland's first printing press in the late 15th century, and today the place remains a center of Swiss communications. The coin depicts St Michael slaying the mythical dragon (having a devil's face), while the other side shows the arms.

 

It was like $600 when the lot opened and a bidder and I ran it up. Ended up selling for about $1850.

I miss coins I had to sell. But I will replace them one day!

There was a Seated Half I would have liked to have won. I did not bid in time.

[Just Bob]

There were several coins & tokens that I wish that I had gotten, but the one that stands out was a bimetal lumber token that I missed because I was trying to watch too many auctions at one time. It went for $6 and some change!
