@Twobitcollector thats a really cool set. I was thinking about what to do around my PF66 ‘42 Merc, and maybe a year set is the ticket.
Might go for a complete Merc proof set, it in now going to look more into one like yours. Congrats on finishing it.

Ordered this week, not shipping from APMEX until 7/24. From the Royal Mint. 7500 mintage. Lifelong Elton fan, could not pass it up:
Not a new purchase but something interesting. Was looking through a bunch of mercury dimes I bought a while back and came across a better date 1926-S. It’s in really rough condition but not bad for $1.

This one just arrived. It’s a proof and if anyone here has tried to image up a proof copper coin you know what I’m talking about. Without the plastic it’d be a breeze. The color of this is neon green and is exactly the color of the CAC sticker that’s on the slab. It was love at first sight. Graded PR-65 brown CAC’ed.
Thanks for looking, Joe
The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

Sometimes I just can't resist. This is one of those times. Saw this:
I've ordered from Pobjoy before. Remember "Boaty McBoatface" ?
Would you be tempted to at least check out the above blurb ? I had to. I had no choice. The lure was too great. One Day Only - Only 10 Sets Available - Same Unique Number Add a reasonable price for the set. Come on ! It's almost unfair enticement.

Still early in Az. some great coins in here! Keep those np coming. I have a 5 coin sub of a few of my np in grading at pcgs. I'll share in a week or so
I just won this coin at Great Collections. It's MS 67+ CAC and so is a (slight) upgrade to the complete commemorative collection I am working on. As soon as it arrives, I will include it in my registry set. According to the TrueView and GreatCollections pictures, it's pretty (I hope) and so I should be happy with it (I also hope ... )
It’s my turn! Just got home from getting the mail. Two weeks of GC wins. Wife got her macro lens today, so hoping to upgrade pics soon.

@Kliao that's a nice pick up. One of my favorite coins is a 1921 I got out of a junk bin at a jewelry shop as a teen.

The 1970d Roosevelt. Reverse of the Proof '68 Dime. Darn Carbon! Oh well?
The shop owner threw this in as a freebie for the purchase of a jar of E-Z-Est. Lol
So I guess I shouldn't complain.
