After not completing a single set since I started collecting in 2004, I have completed four sets since Dec 3rd. On that date I purchased a 1909 S-VDB Lincoln cent in PCGS MS63RD OGH to complete my Lincoln business strike. Most of them are not in PCGS holders so there is no registry set for it. Since then, I also completed date/mm sets of silver Washington Quarter and Roosevelt Dime sets, mostly starting from my 90% silver stack. Then recently, I acquired the last two proofs I needed for my Lincoln Memorial proof set; the 1968 in PR68DCAM and 1972 in PR68DCAM. I went ahead and put them up on the registry and my set is currently ranked 30th! 
I didn't plan on them all coming together like that so fast after taking forever to complete the first set, but they have all been a lot of fun in their own ways. Completing a set gives me a great feeling of satisfaction as I've always had the collector personality. Good luck to all of you working on some set or another!

<< <i>A Dansco 7070. The set actually came to me haha. At the Houston Money Show one of the dealers was just pulling coins out of albums and throwing the albums and capsules in the trash! I asked if he minded me trashpicking so I took a bunch of capsules and a 7070 for free! I already had a bunch of the type coins and will be looking to fill out the rest with lower grade no problem coins.

Congrats on completing those sets!
I think that you'll find filling a Dansco 7070 album with nice examples to be one of the most educational, fulfilling, and FUN journeys you can find in collecting... Good luck!
