Well, with the recent successful grading of my 1885, I am now 1 away from completing this low grade sub-set. …and I will tell you all, this was no small feat in getting even this far!!
…now, I will hold my breath until I can find an 1890 in low grade : )
Let me know thoughts on the set below:

No 1891?
Checked off, just didn't make the team photo?
A very nice group of original seated halves! Tough to find in that grade range.

I think your group of coins are extremely cool! A great series to collect and your subset is tough to find in lower grades since many were saved in higher condition despite the tiny mintages. Big congrats!

Yes, congratulations!
What a great challenge it must have been, to find circ examples of those low-mintage dates!
30+ years coin shop experience (ret.) Coins, bullion, currency, scrap & interesting folks. Loved every minute!
Great assembly and very well matched. Congrats, thanks for sharing and best of luck on that final 1890!
Time well spent, wtg 🙂
Cool.
Hens teeth.
Also the thread title only goes to 1890.
I dont normally include the 1891 in the subset since the mintage and rarity does not compare to the other dates.
Good point.
Great set! Thought about a similar run!
I used to collect Seated halves and to find those dates in problem-free condition was tough! That's a great accomplishment and I wish you luck on finding the remaining piece.
Wow, all look super original too. Beautiful halves. Nice work!!!
