Yay, I'm happy to be done. I picked up the last one at the CSNS Chicago HA auction, the 1867.
Well, we're never really done with our sets. There is always room for improvement and I could name a half dozen right now. But I enjoy the sense of completion nonetheless.
I completed a mostly gem red set of early Lincolns (1909 - 1958). And my 98% complete large cents are brown. So I decided to go for mostly red brown IHC's, targeting MS64/65.
Here's a look at this modest set.

I have mostly focused on Morgan & Peace dollars, but I have to say that Indian (and Flying Eagle) cents were my first love. You're tempting me to go back to the copper side
You should be very proud.
Congrats!

<< <i>Super set from top to bottom! But what's up with the '61 in 62?....is it undergraded like it looks? >>
I think MS62 is a little harsh.

Good work !

Love the color on that 1884.

Congrats on a great set you put together.
It is easy to run out with a checkbook and throw together a set, but it only takes a minute looking at your set to know that you put a lot of time and experience into assembling her.
Enjoy the feeling. You deserve it.

I could eat that 1881. You could even hold the Tabasco on that one.
