Hi all 20th Century Type Guys:
With the new sets will you still plan to play and where. Of course, anyone can list wherever they want, but can we reach a consensus on where everyone will list to keep of some semblance of the fun.
I plan to play in the following:
1. 20th Century Type mint state and proof with minor varieties. Except for the SLQs I already own the "minor types", and I like the SLQs enough to buy all three. Don't like the high relief Peace, but it looks like its not a "minor type" Should this be the set we all agree to play?
2. 1950 to Date Modern Proof. Like the additions. Don't like the deletions, but I would have bought those anyway.
3. Gold - I had planned to play in the basic gold type set listed under gold. So, this might fit into the gold design set. No interest at all in the gold type set. Don't plan to ever buy a high relief Saint, but if I ever do , it won't be because of that registry set.
Will consider the proof only and mint state only versions of the 20th century for the future.
Cheers

I don't plan on buying the 1907 gold varieties anytime soon, but they are something I wanted for the Complete Type set one day.

The latest word is that the current 20th Century set is now the 20th Century with Minor Type MS & PR. There appeared to maybe be a few minor changes, but nothing major that I could see. The current 1959 present sets are being replaced with the 1950-present sets.

20th Century Type Set - Major Types, No Gold - Circulation Strikes and Proofs (1900-1999), that High Relief Peace still just kills me.
On the new Modern Type sets, I already had the Proof Jefferson and Washington, I just purchased a nice 1962 PR68CAM Franklin for $90. Now I need a nice 50-58 Proof Lincoln (probably PR68RD or PR67CAM, any help here? )

20th C. Type Set
1976 Proof Set
20'th Century Type C/S and PR with minor varieties
20'th Century Proof Type
Circulating gold type set (12 piece)
California fractional gold mini type set
Complete type set
Proof Jeffersons 1938-present
If you pretend the complete type set is not in my list I am mostly complete on the rest...
The (so-called) 20th Century Type Set - Major Types, No Gold - Circulation Strikes (1900-1999)
The (so-called) 20th Century Type Set w. Minor Variations, No Gold - Circulation Strikes (1900-1999)
Both of my 20th Century Type Sets will be "true" 20th Century Type Sets (1901-2000)... I refuse to include 1900 coins and will consider my 2000-P Sackie to be part of the set.
Will also be participating in:
Modern Type Set - Circulation Strikes (1950-Present)
and
20th Century Gold Major Design Set - Circulation Strikes
I like the "Major Design" idea with the gold set, hopefully someday I'll break out of Major Design and move into 20th Century Gold Type!
I probably won't bother with proofs at all. If I branch into another set It will be Complete US Type.

1950-Present Circulation Strike
1950-Present Proof
And I'll still have my MS Ikes & Proof SBAs.
I'm also slowly working on a PR 1936-1964 Washington Set, and a PR Ike Set. Neither are registered yet... holding off until I can get the 5 free gradings with them.
Should be wild.
