[QUOTE="Art, post: 44880, member: 568"]There are a number of options available to you. One is a full set of American Silver Eagles. They are beautiful coins and modestly priced. There are no great rarities. Lincoln Memorial Cents is a nice set with a decent number of years in the run. The set is fairly reasonable and can be customized to suit your desires, like proofs/no proofs. An attractive set and reasonably priced in even high grades. Jefferson Nickels are very affordable. The keys in the series are still well within most people's budgets, even if you include the proof issues. A short set can be just the Jefferson War nickels. Very nice. Statehood quarters can be nice. Again can be done with or without proofs. Easy to put together from circulation and trading or just buy the sets issued by the mint. Good luck with whatever you decide to collect. Many people overlook the Flying Eagle and Indian Head Cents as doable and affordable. Depending on the condition that you choose you can put together a 20th Century set. The 09-S and 08-S are a little pricey but not that bad. Going back into the 19th century, if you stay to good and vg, there are only a couple of really expensive coins, 1877, 1870, 1871, ...most are pretty available.[/QUOTE]
