I started assembling my Mercury Set 3 years ago and today I completed a milestone by adding a 1936-D MS65FB. The Late Date Set (in rattlers) is now complete. I won't ever be #1 but I'm pretty sure it's the only 100% complete in rattler holders!
Now I just need the other 27 coins to complete the series.

I said to myself, "it will be a long shot if he complete's even the short-set".
Well, you've done it, and above all completed it in a relativelt short period of time.
Very much congrats to your Millertime, and good luck on your final 27 coins
Now go get the other 27 coins.

I hadn't heard of your quest. Coinsider me quite impressed.
(Whoops. Hey, like that typo? "coinsider"? I do it all the time.)
Just the short set is an accomplishment. Before clicking the link, I thought that was all you had. I see now you've made considerable (coinsiderable) progress towards the "whole enchilada"!
Impressive!

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

In My Humble Opinion
(you can tell I'm a Rattler and OGH Fan)
My early PCGS
Now, the question is - will the early key dates like the famous 16-D be mint state in rattlers too - or will a lowley VF coin do?
Again, congrats on the completion of the later date set!

I started with the goal of grade didn't matter but it has just so happened that all I've been able to find is MS dimes. If the '16-D comes along in MS there's is absolutely nothing I can do about it and will have to let it go
Looks like you're 50% complete on your rattlers. Yours is also a very cool set and someday I would like to complete a commem set but not in rattlers.
Thanks everyone else for your comments.

Really cool set.
Are you going to try to expand it? Go into 1931 and beyond?
of course, 1932 and 1933 is a freebie.
