Congrats to TN Franklins - 1st to 100% Franklin Variety Set!

A big congratulations to Tennessee Franklins for being the first to 100% completion and also #1 for the Franklin Variety Circulation Registry Set! I know he's put a lot of work into building this set! Anyone else working on the set knows how difficult some of these varieties are!

This set has the only 1954-D Bugs certified by PCGS and one of the three 1952 Bugs. These are the toughest Bugs dates in the set.

You'll have some more work to do once the new CPG listings are added to the composition but that's the fun part!

    There's another thread running where someone made the first 1960 Bugs Bunny variety in a PCGS holder, and it shows a FS number on the tag. Is there a reason that coin is not included in the "complete varieties" registry when obviously PCGS recognizes it?

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    The new CPG listings haven't been added to the composition yet. I heard it would be sometime in March.

    Great accomplishment. It's very hard to finish any complete variety set.

    Way to go!!

    I am not a registry guy, but that is a tough set period.
    Congrats are in order.
    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"
