    So does that make you a half-dime-man now?

    I think it makes me a "Nickel & Dime" Man.image

    No, I think "Fi'teen-Cent" Man might work better! What do you think?
  • OldEastsideOldEastside Posts: 4,602 ✭✭✭✭✭
    image hmm fifteen will get ya 20.............so after your done with the nickels you'll have to go after 20 cent pieces image

    Very nice coins! A great set to go for. If you see a circulation strike 1880 shield nickel in any condition-buy it. These are super tough to find. Good luck on this one-finding the right coin may take you quite a while here.

    Can't do both in complete variety. Just too much for my pocketbook. But I am using varieties where I can in the Nickel set.

    So, you are not hip enough to get down with "Fi'teen Cent Man" eh!

    However, I do like Five & Dimeman!

    Nice set to attempt that is closely related to your main focus (dimes).



    You are off to a good start with some nice examples thus far.



    Have fun and good luck.

    No, 58's are just all that are put up so far. I was wanting to do a Everyman Complete Nickels 1866-1938 (Shield thru Buffalo), but BJ would not create the set for me.

    There are only so many hours in the day, Dimes will have to share time with Nickels.image

    A zillion years ago I started a complete set of nickels 1866 to present. I never got to move beyond shield nickels, having gotten captivated by the varieties.



    I did do a Jeff nickel set because it was easy and I wanted something easy. Shield nickel varieties get tough when you're after specific varieties.

    Shield Nickels are rich with varieties for sure! Too many for even me to chase!image

    No hard feelings.. As I said, rarely a day goes by that I don't get called Jason. Sometimes I just answer to it. I still have some co-workers that call me Jason without thinking. It's alway's happened and always will. image

    Excuse me if I missed it earlier, are the Shield, Liberty and Buffs going to be Everyman style? It is what it appears to be...so far.



    BTW, you moved up to #9.

    Love the nickels. After getting more into Buffs recently I just can't stop admiring these all day. Just found a 1936 S/S from my grandfather's Buffalo nickel hoard.



    Good luck!
