  For a fleeting moment I was number one all time finest in the 1964 proof set. Took about 24 hours to get knocked all the way to the basement. Ruthless competition.

  Please excuse my ignorance, but do these registry proof sets consist of what, slabbed proofs?

  I'm in the top five in proof 2c pieces. #4, I believe.
  
  So what if there are only four sets registered?

  LM,
  
  The competition's a little stiffer over in circulation strikes with 11 sets registered. I'm at #5 with only 56% complete. Gotta love these neglected series.

  Thanks, Bear. I've been around, but most of my time is spent in the Dark.

  I've got the #1 IHC variety set - the worst I can do is #2 (only 2 sets)
