Which is the most liquid?
Which of the following is least liquid?
Foreign currency.
U.S. Treasury bonds.
Rare coins.
Savings deposit.
I am thinking a Savings Deposit, but I was also possibly thinking a Treasury Bond. Any ideas would be appreciated.

You're right. Saving deposit followed by treasury bonds.
Rare coins are probably the least liquid; if you had to sell them in a hurry, you could not be assured of getting a fair price.
But a lot depends on the situation. In the case of a bank crisis, saving deposits could be least liquid.
But assuming no special conditions, in terms of the ease of converting into cash at fair value, then as above.

For me Treasury Bonds would be least liquid.
The others, I could sell in a matter of minutes.
