I need some inspiration and goals for what my set could like when it is complete... so post a pic of the "Cream Of The Crop Page" of your set! Also any tips or suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated

here's a page I'm rather fond of..

search "type set" for lots of tips

Baley, I have been looking at previous type set posts and that is my reaction everytime I see yours... sorry about drooling so much on those incredible coins

Cheating...I know...but here is some seated type...

N8 · June 30, 2007 8:01AM

Sweet coins! I love the setup too.

Here's some gold type from Southern Appalachia.

N8 · June 30, 2007 8:14AM

Very nice, FatMan. Sadly a set of that type of metal for me exists only in my dreams

Thanks for the pic!

Well I really cannot show you a whole page, but here is my favorite coin of all of them.

Superb half cent. What does she grade?

This is the only page I have completed, missing 1 coin from 4 others (besides the moderns) 4 coins left!

The scanner didnt show any luster of the coins, the drapped half cent and cent look better in person. The classic head large cent is marked corroded, but the corrosion is the small mark at 12:00. The 2 center has some blue-purple toning in the center.
Will post everything else when its done!

Here's the cream of the crop for my Southern Silver Type Set. Of course it's also the only coin I've gotten for the set so far.

4 to go, thats awesome! I especially love that nicely toned trime.

That is definitely a great start, nice coin

In all the years I was married with two daughters, I could never get all three women to sit down, be quiet and face the same way.

I had to get a TYPE set to do it !

I was suprised when I saw you selection for 'the best'.... then I read the caption

Wowzers.
Barry, that is AWESOME, thanks for sharing.

N8 · July 1, 2007 3:27AM

Yes Barry, very nice! I like you setup showing the front and back of each row consecutively. Gets me thinking...

Would any of you attempt a 7070 that had TWO slots for each type? One to show the Obv and one for the Rev? A nice complete matching set would be very
