My big score...Finished a set!

Well finally, after working on this set for a couple of years it's finished. George III currency halfpennies, 1770-1775, 1806 and 1807. The 1807 will probably be upgraded in the future, but otherwise I can concentrate on the other sets now. The last one I needed was the 1775 and it's been three years of looking at numerous examples to find a mint state piece. I won this one in the Goldberg auction Tuesday night in 64 brown. The rest of the set ranges from 63 to 65, mostly brown with the 1770 in RB.

GOOD WORK! That is always a nice feeling. The only problem with collecting is that now you will go on to the next series and maybe forget about these. Oh well, that is the nature of us beasts (OK talking for myself).
