Home PCGS Set Registry Forum

My US Type set is 85% complete, with photos!

I started a US Type set about 7 or 8 months ago, figuring that it would be the most interesting to non-numismatists which it has proved to be. I have had so much fun with it, and I just realized that I only have 6 monre coins to go to complete the set. I am currently at 85%. Once complete, I will upgrade a few of the pieces but overall I am pretty happy with it.

My biggest gripe about PCGS registry sets is that most of them lack photos. So, my main goal was to make sure I had decent photos of every single coin in the set which I have also completed.

I thought I would post it here for your enjoyment.

    Why does your 1943 steelie look so... coppery?

    Bad incandescent lighting. I really need to reshoot that one, I agree. image

    Congrats! Its a big achievement.....been at mine for 5-6 years now and I'm beginning to suspect I'm about topped out (or bottomed out as the case may be). 98% and will likely never get to 100% as there's some pretty big coins - Goebrecht and Disme standing in my way! But its a fun journey and hope you've had as much fun as I've had ( and continue to have). LINK

    great fun set, and yes I'd have to agree with you that the Barber Half is an awesome coin.

    Wow, cool set, thanks for sharing! Didn't know they had this type set on the Registry. I only knew about the one that required many more coins that this. This one seem much easier to start and is much more managable!!! Cool!!

    I shot a new photo of the steel cent this weekend. The color is much better and it is clearer too. image
