Nice project! I was thinking about doing an 1866 proof set because I have the dime and quarter is pretty toned PR65 already. You might want to expand to get the "S" mints, if you can find them in high grade.

Nice set. Any significance to the year? Or just the one you picked? I've thought about doing an 1879 proof and mint set, but some of the proof coins for the year are stoppers.
Work in progress for a number of years. Ten Philly coins in copper-silver; four 1st year of issue type coins which I love. Rare issues in mint state. As far as the registry goes, you have to compete against Eliasberg who owned proofs, and was grandfathered in? Not sure why that exists?
Also, DW told me to register a set if I wanted to use the SHOP function.

Nice Set Nic!

I've got three Morgans that are 66-67 and
they don't even come close to that coin.
Congratulations!!!

I feel better about my lack of computer skills, now that I see you had to have help for the immediate link to the set
