Updated pics of my 12 piece type set ~ 2024

Most of you have probably already seen these coins, but it’s the first time that I have done a group photo since a few upgrades have been added.

This has been a very fun set to do and I continually enjoy owning these coins. Unless something comes along that blows me away the only coin that I specifically want to update still is the type one gold dollar, I want that in MS 64, but I’m waiting for the right one to come along…

The rattler that I will be upgrading will be kept because that is actually the very coin that started this whole set, so it has a special place in my collection no matter what I replace it with!

Anybody doing the same set? Post your pictures in here!

    @lermish awesome! 👍

    It’s not in the picture, but I’ve gone sideways a little bit, because I have all three of the Liberty double eagles.

    And I may possibly go with no motto five and 10 liberties only if I find ones I like, of course. If I never buy those, I’m OK with that.

    I'm working on it as a background task, and am about half done. I don't have good photos of those coins. Grades so far range from MS63 to MS66. With current budget constraints, I don't see myself making much progress on it any time soon.
    But nice work on your set!

    Beautiful gold all!

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

    Nice! You should expand to the 20 piece set.

    I have a couple of other pieces that could be used for that set, but draped bust gold is not in my depth of the pool….at least until my daughter is out of college.

    A 20 piece set covers 1834-1933 and would include T1,T2,T3 Liberty double eagles, motto/no motto etc.

    Thanks for posting that @Manifest_Destiny!

    That 20 piece set would be a good bridge between the 12 and 36. I do believe PCGS would create the set with a few requests.

    This is what is included in a 20 piece set but unfortunately, PCGS doesn't have a registry for it.


    That would be fun to attempt!
