im almost done with me 46-64 roosevelt collection i only need 55d and s then i get to try to finish my merc collection haha
Good luck getting your last couple coins for your set. I have a fondness for the silver Roosies but I have a love for the Mercury dime. I also try to collect only BU coins, so it will take a very long time before I can complete my sets. I have time, no money, but I'm patient. Post a pic. Allen
Nice going. Feels good when you complete a set. I suspect your Mercury dimes are going to be a LOT tougher to complete. And a LOT more expensive. I just finished a silver Roosevelt set a couple months back. I included the proofs. My last one was the 1950 Proof. Mine are all slabbed, with the business strikes being MS-66 or better. The proofs are MS-65 or better.
I only have two left for my BU set too, mine are the 49S and 50. Maybe I'll get them this weekend It's a beautiful looking set!
Now you have put together a very nice set IMHO. Better then average MS grade, including the proofs. My cup of tea. Show some pics if you can, please. Allen
Although I have made an image inventory of much of my collection, I haven't done it for these dimes. Lots of work for coins that aren't all that valuable. This was a "fun" set for me. A "fun" set is low priced coins I collect to keep me interested while I wait to get other items. If there's a couple in particular you'd like to see, let me know. An image of the boxfull of slabs would be easy.
BTW, a high grade "birth year" set is a real "fun" set as long as you weren't born in years like 1916 or 1932 or something like that. I was born in 1941 and put together a nice birth year set. Fun! That's one I can show since I imaged it.
