Moved Into The Top 5 On The Modern CS Type Set

Someone must have deleted a set, as I had been number six.
The bright spot is I had been trying to get this set Pedigreed, but could not. I stayed in the top five for the first year+, but they would not allow pedigree. I had dropped out of the top 5 by the time pedigree was allowed. (Not to start the pedigree debate about if a coin is worth more or less--I expect most of these coins to stay in my family a long time.)
The other bonus is I have not been working on this set for some time.... I did buy an MS67RD copper Memorial Cent, but I would have been #5 with or without that coin.

It will make a great heirloom.

I'm almost tempted to play in that set. The complete set is a longer row to hoe. I have decided to work on some subsets of the complete type set first.
I did decide to finish my nickel type set first (1 type to go). Then I would like to finish a basic type set like what TypeTone proposed. But if that isn't ready I might look for some basic types and add them all to the CNS set...
Anyway you are motivating me to buy another coin Brian!
Nice set. Everytime I look at that type set it makes me want to start one, like Carl said.

Way to go.
Be sure to print out a page showing you're #5 so when you submit your coins for your pedigree you can show you were #5

Yes, I already printed so if I drop from #5 tomorrow I can pack them up and ship them out ASAP.
Wow, I just saw that. I had not been out there for a while, as I had "collectors block" since I could not find many coins under $200.
I think Sean dropped out about a month ago, so I assume mdwoods was the last one to drop.

I love Ike dollars and all other dollar series !!!
I also love Major Circulation Strike Type Sets, clad Washingtons ('65 to '98) and key date coins !!!!!
If ignorance is bliss, shouldn't we have more happy people ??
