Does anyone else do date sets that really have no personal meaning?

For example... Although irrelevant to the actual birth years of certain family members I'm more drawn to coinage coined exactly 100 or 200 years prior.
To Err Is Human.... To Collect Err's Is Just Too Much Darn Tootin Fun!

That does sound like a fun project!

That means, should you collect for 100 years, you will then own all coins in the past two hundred years.
Way to go and hope you live long enough!!

You are lucky, 1875 is one of the easiest years for higher grade seated coins + you get a trade dollar and no morgan or seated $.
Try 1863 in high grade.......
