Does anyone know if there are any US Coins Registry Sets with only one required item?

Also, how many sets only have 2 required items? There is at least one and that is the 1916 Proof Set.

I could answer this by opening each set and looking, but that will be a bit tedious....

    I am unaware...

    The New Set Requests I submitted required 5 certification numbers

    But there may be an option for "Specialty Set Requests"

    I tried messaging some folks at PCGS but did not get an answer. I will open each one up and look as I get a round tuit since I am curious. Will let you know what I find out!

    It takes two (or more) to make a set. By mathematical definition.

    Unless of course...if You are an avid Poker Player

    A Set is 3 in that case...2 is only a Pair

    Having both a Set and a Pair is a Full House...

    But 4-Of-A-Kind takes the Pot

    But I played a hand that cost the loser dearly...when his 4 Aces came up short against My Royal Flush

    How can you have a Royal flush if he has 4 aces? Not 5 aces in most decks I play

    From the PCGS Registry:

    United States - Philippines (USPI) Half Centavo, Circulation Strikes (1903-1904)

    “This is clearly the shortest series of U.S. coins and the fewest required in the entire registry – a mere 2 coins, both struck at the Philadelphia mint. Worth 1/4th of a penny at face value, it was a wonder of miniaturization for its time and America’s smallest denomination. Despite all the distinction, the coins fell out of favor with the public, prompting the series’ end after only 2 years.
    Neither date is particularly hard, but finding both of them in gem condition (and especially in the original cherry red) is no cakewalk and a great way to get your feet wet in the US-Philippines series.”

    I was dealt KQ Hearts...He had AA

    Flop was A-10 both Hearts and Q Spades - Turn was J Hearts - River was his 4th Ace

    So his hand was AAAA / Q high and Mine was Royal Flush

    Pretty simple and a huge pot win
