Capped Bust Half Dimes by Die Marriage and Remarriage
There are 123 coins required for a complete die marriage and die remarriage set. I am missing nine coins in PCGS holders. Reality is I have all but two of the required coins, just some are sitting in the SDB raw (problem free and problematic). Of all the coins currently listed in the registry set, only one is in a genuine holder.

21 of the coins came from ebay. These came raw or slabbed with about the same frequency (50-50). A couple of the "finest known" examples for the die marriage/remarriage are in this group too!
About ten coins came through this forum (BST or forum friends), including again some of the finest known examples for a die marriage or remarriage.
