    It has been well over a year since I posed an update to my set and I think I added about 20 coins last year so time for an update! The set is sitting around 80% complete and is the vette set on the PCGS registries. The link below has all the coins I consider in the set so that includes several dupes and toners. Also a few of my favorites that have parted ways to make room for other coins. An example would the 5 1921 Morgans in PL, all CAC or the 3 1902-O's DMPL's out of the total pop of 53.

    Hope you enjoy viewing them as much as I do, feel free to post any comments or DMPL questions!

    Here is a link to the entire set, 157 coins to view:

    Highlights pickups for the year were some tough coins:

    1893-O PCGS 61PL, total pop of 14 all grades.

    1902-S PCGS 61PL, total pop all grades 34.

    1898-0 PCGS 64DMPL, replaced a lifeless version in my set:

    Here is my favorite thing to do now, pickup common dates with uncommon mirrors, real deep ones like the following:

    Great looking set Todd. I'll guess the last 13% is going to be tough.

    Nice pick-ups, Todd. I was beginning to wonder what you were doing with your set when you posted some of them for sale a while back.

    Gorgeous. :) Simply gorgeous.

    How ambitious are you to completing the other 13%? Or is that an unfortunately piece missing from reality?

    Very nice set. I too like to add the common dates in high grade with a PL or DPL grade.

    I will be in Orlando....

    Ambitions on the other 13% are mixed. It is a financial wall for me. Of course I never thought I would have a 93-O in PL. I attend enough shows where I may find a couple of these and then have to sell some dupes.

    cpm9ball- I always have an inventory of DMPL's for sale. This year I downgraded a couple coins to have a lower grade with better mirrors. I probably always have a about 30 DMPL/PL coins in the sale box. I cant keep them all!!
