I just added my newest purchase, a 42/41 AU58 to complete my Mercury Full Bands variety set. Ranked number 7, it is about the best I can financially handle as a high school principal. It's a pleasing, well matched set of which I am very proud. I am humbled to be a part of a great Mercury Dime group of people on these boards.

Good luck in the hunt!

Congrats!

Isn't the 1942/1 dime cool just to keep looking at?

Enjoy!

Now, I have a question for YOU! What was more satisfying; finding a super nice 1942/1 dime and holding it in your hands and admiring it or the satisfaction itself of completing your set????

That would be interesting to discuss!

Thank you all for the responses. The enjoyment always comes from the hunt. I have passed on so many coins over the past years, it is elating to find the right coin at the right price. And so it goes until you have come to the end. I always say that surfing the web sites, walking the bourse and visiting local coin shops to look through inventory is like looking through pocket change as a kid. It is the same satisfaction when you find that special coin that fits in to your set. You know what I'm talking about, right?

Enjoy the hunt, all of you!
