Added these to my 7070 over the past few months. Nothing rare, spectacular, or even necessarily problem free, but they fit in with the rest of the set and all fell within my budget. Going to be a while before I can add the last 3, Classic head large cent and 2 seated dollars.

Nice coins & photos. I need to take some time and shoot all my album type set pieces.

Nice additions!! The Bust quarter has the "right" look.
Lots of character. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful! That 20 center speaks to me!!!

It's too bad they have holes for the seated dollars, that drives the price up for completing the set. You are in that VF/XF range and that will make a nice set.

7070 fans, take some advice...
START with the seated dollars.
I agree... to a point. I was looking at Classic Head Large Cents to kick off my most recent plunge into this set, but I couldn't find one I liked. I did find a nice Draped Bust instead. I'm happy with the coin I have... but I will say, had I waited, I'd have been able to pull the trigger on a nice Classic Head from JJ Teaparty instead. ..a PCGS VF35 piece...

Nice coins.
Those are attractive coins.... with the passion for high grades we see here most of the time, we tend to forget how really attractive coins can be when showing the results of the commerce they were intended to serve. Cheers, RickO
I really like them, your 20 center especially. That is a very nice coin, far better than most.
I meant to say, too bad they have two holes for the Seated Dollars, though I guess they needed to since the motto and no motto options were used for the other SL denominations.

Nice coins!
LIBERTY SEATED DIMES WITH MAJOR VARIETIES CIRCULATION STRIKES (1837-1891) digital album
Whitman type set has only one seated dollar.
The other hole is for bust dollar!
For an otherwise experienced numismatist starting a new 7070. Yes.
For a newer collector, I'd recommend learning, and in some cases upgrading, the other coins before committing to a seated dollar or classic cent. And all the earlier coins for that matter.

Those are nice circulated examples, good additions.
I like them, thanks for postimg
Love the look of that Trade Dollar.
I really like the 1835 Quarter. It looks very original.

Nice 20 cent piece. Those are coins
Very nice coins, love the 20 cent piece. I'm looking to add that to mine but just can't find the right coin.
How well I know. My first type set was the Whitman version and the draped dollar was the last coin that finished that set.
It got kind of ragged and I started to replace it with the Dansco 7070. I just made the hole for one of the SL Dollars a bit larger and put my 1799 Dollar in that hole and made a nice label for it. When I completed my 2nd 7070, I did actually use the two seated dollars (motto and no motto). I toyed with dropping a Flowing Hair in that hole, but thought better of it.

I like all 3, should be a nice album when complete.
Nicely done
They have the circ look I'm aiming for with 19th century silver in my 7070
