[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 7589568, member: 101855"]I have a complete type set from 1792 to present. (excluding the newly added Washington Crossing the Delaware coin which has just been issued.) People can collect whatever they like, but I do not share the "rainbow coin" obsession. Many of those coins are examples of “better coins through chemistry,” and the prices are often outrageous. Sadly, none of the coins posted here would qualify for the true “rainbow coin” The people who buy these pieces are looking for bright, neon colors all over the coin on both sides. That is naturally rare in nature. My ideal 20th century type set would be every coin in Proof that was issued to the general public as a Proof. The only “possible” piece that I am missing is the 1909-VDB cent. Many of those Proofs are owned by a market manipulator.[/QUOTE]
