That is a very impressive accomplishment, and an amazing set - I'm sure Brian had a lot to do with helping you put together such fantastic set of MPL's! I'm envious!!! Congratulations!

Brian was a major, major influence in this set. But then up and down the Registry you'll see his handy work in a good part of them, especially in the non-Red category. Of course another major contributer is Dave Kelly. His work is evident in many sets as well.

Thanks everyone for their congrats and thoughts. This is a thread I truly never thought I'd have the pleasure to be responding to. It is a great feeling, especially with my now empty blue collar pockets.

Kudos to you Bob

Way to go, Bob. I have to give it to you - you do it right!

Book ends ... That 1916 is in my mind the finest original surfaces I've ever personally studied on any MPL. And on the other end, the VDB is an under-graded looker, as well. You have a knack for patiently picking coins with real eye appeal, and for that reason, your collection rocks
