That is a really impressive group of quality commems. The Isabella is breathtaking. I am here more to comment how nice they are, than just to enter. Great set
Edit to say:
I like the color direction this II set is taking. Seems more exciting than the retired set, to me.

Where do I start? I've never seen an online collection before; so I can't compare your collections to anyone else's. With that, I am amazed at the amount of work you put into the collection. Not just the gathering of the coins, but the presentation; the ability to click on a single coin and view a tremendous amount of detail (including pics) of that coin, is what amazes me. As to the coins themselves - an outstanding collection of high graded commemoratives. Embarrassingly, The only slabbed commemorative I have is the Texas one. Clicking on yours, revealed a whole bunch of neat info. Well done.
Very nice set. I commented on the amazing colors on your 1892 Columbian. A Pilgrim commem is on my short list, and maybe an upgrade of my Oregon Trail.

Beautiful set, wonderful colors.

Lots of really nice commemoratives there! Keep it up. Your retired set was pretty special as well. Looks like you spend time looking at many coins and are patient enough to buy the right ones!

I like the Isabella and the Columbian as well as the rest of the set. Looking good!
Can someone tell me how to post a link in the signature line like CommemKing has done?
Very nice

Very nice set!
Always buying nice toned coins! Searching for a low grade 1873 Arrows DDO Dime and 1842-O Small Date Quarter.
Gorgeous set! I've been thinking about starting a classic commemorative set like this, as it seems to be a good time to pick some up.
Not sure what else there is to say - some great looking coins in there and obviously a lot of work went into the collection.
Wow! Talk about "Historical Proportion". Beautiful sets. How long did it take to complete the first set? Good job and good luck in compiling the second.

Please only remember my opening Sig Line.I am a HUGE fan of early US commemorative and I would cut off my left arm for the Roanoake you have in your set, it is absolutely stunning! How long have you been working on the set?
EDIT: I commented on your registry set but my username isn't popping up, no idea why. Mine is the one about your Roanoake
It’s a beautiful set and I’m guessing you’ve learned some valuable lessons from your first set to make building this one even more rewarding!
Classic Commemoratives are a great series to collect due to all the different designs, the history behind many, and even some of the controversy.
You've got a nice set going there. I really like the look of the Columbian, Roanoke, and BTW. The Isabella is AWESOME, but seems to look out-of-place with its darker toning.
Noice.
I love rim toned commems. Very nice set. The Roan. is lovely. Good eye for quality.
The first set took me 8 years. Im guessing the current set will take longer. I see my mistakes on the first set and hope to improve, which I think I have so far.
OMG, 8 years? What an example of great patience and endurance. If you could place a price on your first set, what do you think? Just curious.
One more thing...I admire your Avatar (username). It certainly fits you. LOL

I sold my first set for a substantial loss. I had to sell for financial reasons. The market was and has been way down on these for years. Hard to make any profit. I hope to keep this new set for my lifetime. I feel my new set is starting much better than my first. Thank for the interest.
I am not a big fan of the majority of the classic commemorative designs, but I do like the "tone" of your sets.

The Bridgeport has amazing tone ....... it is like a golden halo
Thank you for a wonderful chance
Isabella is my daughter's name, so that's going to be my fav.
I like layers! And I just realized I made a comment as "TastySnail"
I really liked the Maryland Pilgrim and Roanoke.
Wouldn't mind having the Maryland if the opportunity
would present itself.
Nice pieces, I really like your MS67 Oregon.
Thanks for the chance...
I love BTW commems! Thanks!
Beautiful coins all! I love toned commems and you're gathering a great group.
Wonderful Set!
Unbelievable!
Beautiful coins. i am amazed the more time I spend here on the sets and collections that a lot of people have.
Your retired set was gorgeous and it looks like you are on the way to an even better set! Congratulations!
Awesome! Particularly love the Pilgrim!
I said...."I admire your passion for the classic commemorative series and your eye for appealing coins is excellent. Looking forward to watching this set grow."
And I meant it.

Very nice! This is what collecting is all about, finding coins that are similar in quality and look. Naturally toned coins are so much more interesting than boring white.
Great eye appeal.

Beautiful set. Congratulations. When completed and all toned similarly it will be the most beautiful collection of Commems I have been privileged to view. Thanks for sharing and good luck. I built an album for Mike(MFH) some years back and his, while complete, was without toning, white, white, white. I love your retired set also, but your new set is fantastic.

A beautiful set. All great examples but I especially love the Roanoke.
Love the toning and high relief of the pilgrim commemorative. Beautiful design 👍
Thanks for the posting. Learned how easy it was to view and comment.
I’m disappointed as I clicked into the thread thinking it said “SAMPLE” giveaway instead of “simple” giveaway. Sometimes you see what you want to see haha!
Seriously though, nice coins!!!
