It only took 48 years!

I know this is a simple set to put together but after 48 years of doing JUST Lincoln cents I branched out and put a set of SBA dollar together. She’s an ugly old hag but she’s growing on me. I’ve got to find A 1999 proof to really finish the set then the type 2 coins for 1979 & 1981. Shows coming up soon! Reed and Sparkles the Unicorn.

Well.. You couldn't choose from the beginning to put a set of SBA's because they have only been around 39 years

But I know what you meant

 

She looks better than a certain commemorative dollar...

 

Never thought about that @paddyman98 your right but I was too interested in the 17 year old girl that would become my wife to think about a new series to collect. Lol.

Which one would that be?

 

I'll venture a guess that it's this one....

 

Yes, don't enlarge the image if you know what's good for you.

 

Bingo....

 

Yikes, she was almost worse in person. Reed and Sparkles.

 

Thanks, I am going to need another shot now. Hahaha

 

Have you though about branching out to the Ike dollar series or even a small foreign series such as the Mexican 100 pesos coin of 1977-1979?

 

Yes I think Ike’s are the natural next step. I’ll look at some foreign coins I think for ideas. Norwegian coins have short runs and would be interesting and easy to complete. Thanks for your suggestions.
