    Sweet!

    I know that is your highlight (and you hid is ALL the way at the bottom) but I also see some nice MS67 quarters, a MS67RD 1968p lincoln, and some overall nice grades.

    Good eye!

    Great. Looks like a lot of great coins.

    About 3% of the Philly dimes are nice DDO's (pup @ date) though most of
    these will not grade very high.

    Were there no nice halfs?!?

    I assume all of the Philly cents have little carbon spots on both sides.

    1800 sets! That is a lot of checking. BTW you do suck for the big money coins in that submission.

    Your registry set is very impressive. Most #1 sets are but a few hundred'ths above the #2 sets. Yours is more than a full point above! I've always given extra credit (in my mind) to those sets with home made coins and yours is mostly home made. Double congrats!

    Thanks for the compliments. Its hard to put together a top #1 mint set becasue you have to compete with all the top series guys for top coins. I am sure there are a few roosie collectors who would like theose roosies I got from Nick. And the other coins simply are not avail so you have to make them. It is fun and that is what it is all about. I got the 68-P in 67FB from Nick and after going through 1800 mint sets I don't ahve a coin to touch it. I am so glad I got that coin when it came avail. Its harder than people think.

    Junkards, a 68-S in 64FS is not a junk coin! It is a rare beast indeed.

    I would be afraid to keep it in my collection. I would be worried that someone would make another and then it would plummet to $10K.
