What sets are you working on

Striker · December 31, 2003 9:53AM

I'm currently working on my type set, though am also working on my Buffalo nickel and Peace dollar sets on the side, when a coin for either of those sets comes across that would look good for my sets of those I can't help myself.

edited to change nickle to nickel.

Senlathiel · December 31, 2003 9:56AM

PCGS Sacagawea set--mostly MS67/68 and PR69
Dansco Washington Quarter set--uncirc if I can afford it
Just started a 1976 (my birthdate) date set project tonight (I'm browsing ebay in another window)

cosmos66 · December 31, 2003 10:02AM

I am working on 2 morgan sets. One set all MS and the other for my InterceptShield albums.

HavanaJoe · December 31, 2003 10:17AM

I recently completed my BU set of Silver Eagles. I am now working on a set of PCGS MS69 Silver Eagles. Then it will be PCGS PR69 Silver Eagles, followed by Mint Box Proof Silver Eagles and Mint Roll BU Silver Eagles.

Morgan pl/dmpl set. Is there anything else out there to collect? Well, this is the disturbing question that keeps me up late at night. As of yet, it remains unanswered.

Cladiator · December 31, 2003 10:28AM

Working on PCGS Peace Dollars, ASE's in MS69 and raw Silver Libertads/Pandas/Maples/Kookaburras/Britannias for PCGS submission when complete

numobri · December 31, 2003 10:29AM

I have an open end date set of early dollars with extras,one more and i'll have a roll(if there is such a thing) of them.

airplanenut · December 31, 2003 12:07PM

Circulated, original type (a few more moderns will be UNC)... my biggest goal is to get the really, really, REALLY original pieces... the grey circulated silver, which I just LOVE.

Jeremy

PS- Also silver eagles, and US in general... I have a set of stuff I like... it's the best set you can buy.

1234567890 · December 31, 2003 12:12PM

Well my album sets include:

Dansco US Type Set
Indian Head Pennies
Baffalo Nickels
Mercury Dimes
And all the modern coinage: pennies, nickes, dimes, etc.

Baley · December 31, 2003 1:21PM

Working on a Complete US type set, need most of the 18th century gold, silver, and copper.
Draped bust quarters and half dollars by die variety, have the major ones, still need quite a few marriages.
Peace dollars, need 3 date/mm and then to do a round of upgrades.
Silver Washingtons, done with 41-64, need the early dates and some upgrades, favor toned pieces.
Merc dimes in G and better, late dates EF and better, need the 21 and 21D and of course the 16D.
Roosies in Gem, need a couple of the early dates.
Indian cents in circ grades (late dates VF and better, earlier ones G+, need lots of the early ones)
Lincoln cents to 1977, ditto.
Done with Jeffs to 64, Frankies, Ikes with silvers and proofs, and Kennedies 64-77.
(these last 2, the only clad coins I have, outside of some examples for Type)

CoinAddict · December 31, 2003 1:26PM

I am currently working on the Early Jefferson proofs from 1938-1964 and also working on a set of business strike Franklin Halves.

lava · December 31, 2003 1:32PM

For those collectors not working on a morgan dmpl/pl set, what the hell is wrong with you!!!!!!!

FC57Coins · December 31, 2003 1:35PM

An early commem set - though that's going reeeeeeeeeeeally slow

Toned Kennedy's 64-70

dollardude · December 31, 2003 1:38PM

PCGS registry sets (I already have the first 3 sets complete raw):
1. Morgan (no varieties) by mid 2004
2. Peace by mid 2004
3. SAE by mid 2004
4. Ike (varieties) by mid 2004 (1 left)

Raw set:
1. Walking liberty halves

I had planned on completing the Morgan PCGS registry set by the end of 2003, but I didn't make it. I got sniped on eBay several times, plus I haven't found ones that I like yet.

...happy new year in another 80 minutes (CST)...

I have a very bad habit of eating and paying other bills....mostly it's the eating thing that's stopping me.

Coulport · December 31, 2003 1:43PM

Actually, the set I have been working on for ever is now complete.
Do they bury me with it or do they try to sell it?
I await your answer.

TommyB · December 31, 2003 1:45PM

I am 4 quarters shy of a complete Washington set in mid MS grade. Just sold some stocks to help me afford the 32 and 36d's. This set is mostly raw, but the earlier years mostly in pcgs and ngc.

Also working on a Lincoln set that is complete from about '29 on.

Mrpawn · December 31, 2003 1:52PM

A few type sets. Dansco albums and some attempts at some registry ones.

puff · December 31, 2003 1:59PM

PCGS late date set Walkers, (1933-1947), 100% complete all with original toning, ms66.4 grade average.... Still want to upgrade a few, and then start on something else, which I haven't decided what t will be yet.

XpipedreamR · December 31, 2003 3:05PM

Pretty much everything. I'm all over the map. I need more focus.

FatMan · December 31, 2003 3:10PM

Gem Early Commems
Circ Dahlonega Half Eagles

Myqqy · December 31, 2003 4:40PM

I'm working on a morgan set (uncirculateds to this point), a cameo franklin proof set, a bust half set, a peace dollar set, silver quarter proof set set, silver eagle set, and the first rumblings of a indian quarter eagle set. Whew! I've heard others advise to focus on one area extensively, but there are too many attractive coins out there!!!

<< <i>For those collectors not working on a morgan dmpl/pl set, what the hell is wrong with you!!!!!!! >>

Don't really care for Morgans. The design is OK but they are just too common.

Draped bust large cents by die variety (but I haven't added a piece in five years, those last five are TOUGH, low four figures in Fr-2 for the S-218, THEN they start getting expensive.)

English Conder tokens intended to actually circulate as money, by die variety (I don't do the different edge varieties.). Some are very common, others just common, but there are some real tough ones in there as well Most of the "just common" ones had mintages in the fifty to one hundred thousand pieces range and the "scarce" in the 12,500 - 50,000 range. I've got 420 of the 651 pieces in the "set".

Myriads · January 1, 2004 4:37AM

Three coins from finishing my Liberty Nickel date set in mixed MS/Proof

Then planning on doing a date set of Three Cent Nickels in the same shape. A fuzzy Idea about $2.50 Indians is out there also.

All forward progress is haulted for a good bit, as my car ate it's transmission on the way to work last Friday (You too will believe a car can sound like a blender full of ball bearings on high), and I had to buy a new car with my coin fund (and it was a much better one then the dearly deceased). So I'm just looking at stuff for a half year or so until I can rebuild the fund.

Lincoln cents 1909-1958 unc and 1959- Proofs.

What I enjoy more then sets are low pop. coins like the 1998 sms half or 1997-p sms nickel in as high a grade as I can afford. Another exampel would be the 1956 type-1 proof half.
To me to get coins with seriously low populations yet maintain collector interest is fantastic. But then to get them in top grade is even better.
