"Officialy" completed my 7070

as I posted last night I elected to "replace" rather then regrade/reslab my 1853 quarter and half for my type set AND managed to get them both for $5 under ngc list lol
so Now there will be no empty spaces in my 7070 but I will be looking to upgrade a few of the "detail" pieces now that I can actually afford to do so
Anyhoo.. here is the pair I decided on
feels good even if I already had these coins to make it "offical" in the registry

With or without gold?

 

Nice Weasel! Is this going to replace the woman?

 

Congrats on the accomplishment, @mrweaseluv !

I’ve got a ways to go on mine yet.

 

without gold, but I am working on a page 5 I never expect to finish lol

 

If you want a peek it can be seen here... https://www.ngccoin.com/registry/competitive-sets/363344/?page=2
The Half dollar above (pcgs) will take a few days to process before it's added... the NGC slabs if not already registered to someone else are instantly added. (though it can take 3-4 days at times to clear if the person you bought it from is too lazy to mark it as "sold" lol)

 

Well done!

 

I bought my 7070 book back in the 70’s before encapsulated coins. How do you do it? Take a picture then insert in the space. Ive done a lot of modifications but last 10+ years it’s just sat in the safe deposit, sadly

 

The 1776 is a copy

 

I love the 7070 Type set! It offers as much or as little challenge as you want, gives you the most complete compilation of US coinage & can be stunning. I'm always updating my personal set

 

Ya lotta fun and years, toughest was the Bingle. Found it in an antique shop in Stevensville MT. Had to have one after reading Michener’s Alaska book.

 

Love the 1853 arrows and rays! Nice coin!

Here's my VF30 1853-O Arrows and Rays...




For comparison, here's a 1854 Arrows only...

 

Congratulations. What's next?

 

slowly filling in the full morgan set and the PL date set as well as mentioned I plan quite a few "upgrades" in the 7070 but more then anything I will probably be working towards my 19th century circulated type set (considerably more inclusive then the 7070 and even counting all the useable coins from the 7070 and the fact it only includes 65 coins i'm less they 2/3s done)
as well as a full type set including modern issues also only about 2/3s finished
