    Out of 30 sets of P & D Silver Buffalos I bought in 2001, I only got 2 MS70's from the "D" s. All the Proof "P"s came back PF-69 UC :rage:

    Here is a Antoninus Pius that another collector was selling here on CT that I really liked and wanted for my collection. It features a seldom seen god.

    The reverse is fairly common on his bronzes, but not Denarii.

    Filled in another slot in my Prime Number set with a 1783 Nova Constelatio [sic] cent.

    What date did you start with? And are you collecting a coin for each year or just coins with prime number dates? What is some of the criteria for your set? There are quite few dates between 1783-2011. I like it.

    1723-1951, 29 coins (also a prime number). It's sort of a type set of U.S. coins, colonials, or world coins that circulated in the Americas, and I try not to repeat design types or be too much in one metal. I'm down to needing 1747, 1753, and 1873. The 1873 will be a gold $20 Lib., and one of the others will be a Spanish or Portuguese colonial gold coin. I have the set on the PCGS registry, so missing this coin and the 1733 8 Reales Klippe I have.

    A mixed bag of a Lincoln I really like and, from my home state, a Wisconsin Dells token. I haven't yet looked into the token but it's a neat piece for the price. Thanks for checking it out.

    Nice 1962 Franklin. Looks similar to one I just picked up in a 1960 proof set recently. It had the following two coins in it and was stored in Capital Plastic Proof Set holder for a couple of decades I believe...at least that is how I purchased the set.

    Beautiful coins. I added this 1959 to my 1964 and down proof set collection. The cent caught my eye!

    Recent inheritance from a family member. These were a few things that caught my eyes. My first silver JFK and a medal from the opening of the Philly mint.
