    My dad likes the Morgan dollars but in all grades so I have talked him into doing a date set....most of them are circulated but he is down to 2.....any date or MM from 1895 and 1896......
    I hope to put them in a book for him....more than likely I'll try to add BU in there when I find them but I don't think I'll try that for the 1895 or 1894 or 1896.....man are they high!!!!

    Wow so many un finished sets

    lincoln collection minus key dates
    Jefferson ms/ 64 almost complete
    Wash collec. minus 32d and all early s mint in uncirculated cond.
    uncirculated Walker collect. minus all key dates
    Morgan collect in ms 65 or higher (missing a lot of dates)
    Peace collect Missing four keys
    Ike collection complete except 72 type 2
    Complete SBA & sac collection( well except the Cheerios and 2000 spec finisH
    wORLD SILVER DOLLAR collection
    Partial proof and unc ASE
    Modern commem. Missing only a few
    And most recently Barber halves in EF or better.( this one will be extremely difficult, I snatch up any uncirculated because they are pretty rare)
    Type set almost complete but missing almost all of the gold.

    Speaking of gold, I think I've caught the fever. I would trade all my coins for gold.Any gold
    Oh ya one last set Mint and Proof sets including Prestige from 58 to present missing the key prestige sets and the Type two proof sets.
    Another recent addition British & Australian proof sets ( only have 04 & 05)


    It will be nearly impossible to complete any sets because I'm always changing my mind and my tastes are becoming more and more expensive!!!!

    I don't normally collect coins by sets. But there is just one set that I would like to complete some day. By date and mint mark might be just a bit much since there was 7 different mints - so I think I'll settle for a date set. The first coin was struck in 1586 - and the last - well, they're striking them today. This one may take a while :D

    Right now I am working on a complete small cent collection from 1857-2005.

    I own approximately 3000 wheaties. And about 100 Indian and Flying Eagle cents.

    3 1909-1940 whitman folders
    3 1941-1974 whitman folders
    1 Lincoln Memorial Cent 1959-1987d whitman

    Indian Head Cents 1857-1909 Intercept Shield
    Indian Head Cents 1857-1909 Dansco
    Lincoln Cents 1909-2005 with proofs Intercept Shield

    I currently have about $150 invested in cent coin holders, I don't even want to know how much I spent on the coins.

    Coin highlights:

    2 1857 Flying Eagles
    1 1858 Small Letters Flying Eagle

    1908-s Indian

    I also have a lot of BU wheaties.

    I am currently missing about 50 small cents not counting proof only strikes and die varieties which isn't bad considering the entire set is over 300 coins.
