It's been a long time since I was on the front page ( top 20 ) for my kennedy set but I got to move up to 21 today and now sit ooohhhh so close to being back in the top 20 --- and still under 40.00 a coin. guess I need to go out and find that next coin I need Anyone have a 77D in 66

Think your going to have a hard time finding fillers for those other holes for under $40.00 per coin. But good luck and the search is going to be fun.

halfnut

yep I know I'm getting close to the end of the 40.00 coins but I still hope to finish the set under a 40.00 average so far I'm doing great there

If you want to remain under a $40 per coin average, you're going to end up with some very ugly coins.

Oh...the competition of the registry. I love it. I love seeing subject lines that read "Passing Signal On" or "finally reached #5"...it absolutely cracks me up. It's funny...but at the same time I appreciate it because it is alot of hard work!

For now, I have decided that I am going to wait to enter coins into my registry in lots of 10.....instead of one by one. Right now I have about 8 or 9 lincolns that I have not entered in my set and I'll wait until I have 10 to update my set online.

My registry excel spreadsheet at home allows me to know EXACTLY where I stand (thanks to Ernie Lyle!) without entering my coins! I like the element of surprise!

Hey Steve so far everyone of my coins is top rate not Ugly, if you had the paitence you to could put together a great set with out having to live on pb&j for the next 5 or 6 years. I had a goal when I started and even with the incresse in prices the last few years I have stayed in my goal. Throwing money at a coin will not garentee a great coin that is not a ugly dog. Yes I have a few remaining that will be more then 40.00 each ( much more) but I have plenty of room to make my average under 40.00 a coin.

Ellewood if I got more the ten coins a year I would wait also but I have worked hard to get back to the front page and every coin I get I just can't wait to get in my set. When I started I was at #14 or so with hardly any coins but after the Registry took off I fell like a rock but have been moving back up slowly so when I just missed getting back on the front page I had to glote a little.

Off to find more have a great day all.

Sorry to say that some of them really ugly coins can be a bit expensive too. Some of the early sixty's coins don't make the grade unless there mint set toned.
Just check my pictures from the link below.
The number ten set.

Yep the price of the coin has nouthing to do with it being a ugly dog or not.
