<p>[QUOTE="Brit in Texas, post: 364869, member: 12971"]For a few of the members here it's pretty obvious what their focus is from their posts (phoenix, rickieB) but I'd be interested to know what everyone's focus is at the moment. Are you trying to complete a set? If so what set is it, what condition etc etc. Also how many pieces do you need until that set's finished. I'm always interested to hear about other peoples interests. Whatever it is you collect, world, paper, errors, type, share what it is that's frustrating and thrilling you right now.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>To get the ball rolling I'm currently working on a set of rosies, bu and proof from 46 to date. I only need 9 more to complete that. I have a couple of sets I've built mainly from circ but this is my first one in high grade and my first including proofs.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the back burner I need 9 coins and 9 upgrades for my wheat cents in nice high F / low VF to AU set. Once I get those I'll probably start from the end and work forwards upgrading to MS. I'm also about 5 coins away from an average circulated Franklin set (not paying more than melt) and working on a walking half set (not paying more than melt plus $1.50 or so. I have a 70% or 80% completed set of washington quarters in AU/BU that I add to when I see a really good deal but for the moment all else is waiting til I finish the rosies <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
