Yet A Third Milestone..... GEM Jefferson Set

I've completed my three year quest to finish a GEM high grade raw Jefferson Nickel set. One set to go for this year, those darned Kennedy Halfs!! Just need a super Gem 1967 and I am done. They will be my fourth set completed this year. Jefferson photos are below.... enjoy.

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    What's that 1946-P look like up close?

    Just one. The 1939 S was in a NTC slab.

    MS66 with beautiful golden tone, just shy of full steps though.

    Nice set. I recently completed one too. Only I ended up deciding to go after the older proofs too so I guess I'm not done yet.

    Cool!! That is just the type of set I'm trying to put together. I'm about 60% done, but I have a lot of really tough dates like 47,48,51,53,63-d. Good job on 1946! What about 1955,1958,1960-d,1962-d? How about the 90's? Where did you find most of your coins? I've cracked about 15 out of slabs, bought a few raw from dealers or shows, and bought a whole mess of rolls, esp 1953-1974.
