First, I would like to thank all those who helped me compile this list.
Here is my thoughts on this set (which may very well change):
1) Design Set means I only want one of each design. Date, Mint and Denomination do not matter.
2) No expensive metal coins (gold, plat., etc.).
3) Prefer PR's over MS's, if made.
Any ideas, thoughts, comments, information, additions, updates or corrections appreciated.

20th C. Type Set
1976 Proof Set
I also picked up the following for $100 shipped:
2000 Canada $2 Polar Bear Silver/Gold Proof (with two cubs)
2004 Canada $2 Polar Bear Proof Coin/Stamps Set
2004 Canada $8 Grizzly Bear Proof Coin/Stamps Set
I only need a 1996 50 Cents and a 1996-2004 (single Polar Bear) to complete the Canada Bear Design pieces.
