    Agreed.

    I believe renaming it - Complete Half Cent and One Cent Type Set (1793-present) - would address the issue.

    Otherwise, you could include Three Cents, Five Cents, Ten Cents, Twenty Five Cents, etc., etc., ...

    Because they didn't want anyone to put their 2 cents in. image

    One cent, by definition, includes two half-cents...and there you have it! image

    I am guessing is the the same reason that 1/2 cents are NOT allowed in the following set

    United States Cents Date Set, Circulation Strikes (1793-Present)

    obviously, 1/2 cents are "Cents", but NOT "United States Cents"

    What's funny, is we have this complete Lincoln Cent registry set, circ strikes, proofs, varieties, EXCEPT the 1982 varieties. These are the most major of any variety!

    Maybe we need to ask for a Lincoln Varieties Set and list those "other" Varieties PCGS just seems to ignore on the fore front.
