Is anyone here trying to collect everything listed in the Red Book? Is there a Registry Set for that?

Many of the coins in the Red Book are truly unique. Probably an impossible task.
That would be an interesting registry set. I like that idea.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
Of course, but not a problem.

Disagree. I would be very incomplete; however, we could ask Mr. Hansen to add Colonials to his set.
If this ever caught on, imagine the excitement every year anticipating new additions to the RB.

What a monumental task.... Something for a young collector to undertake.... not enough years left for we old timers. Cheers, RickO
Eliasberg had colonials, along with confederates, territorials, and medals. So it's more of a question of how much like Eliasberg Hansen wants to be.
I have collected a lot of the types in the Red Book, but not all of them. For example Bermuda, the Philippines and territorial gold are out.
I also like the idea because it lets a collector play the registry game without forcing them to specialize all that much.
