I started with the MOS 6502, the core of the NES, Atari 2600, C64, and a bunch of others. I wrote it in order to build a really simple NES emulator, and I found the chip super approachable and easy to deal with--there just isn't much to it. Documentation is easy to find, too.

If you have 6502 nostalgia, there are some really good tests, and you can basically just keep fixing test failures until they all go away, and you'll have a working chip emulation. https://github.com/Klaus2m5/6502_65C02_functional_tests https://github.com/Klaus2m5/6502_65C02_functional_tests is what I used.
