<p>[QUOTE=&quot;stldanceartist, post: 2086809, member: 13307&quot;]I have two &quot;sets&quot; I&#039;m actively working on.</p><p><br /></p><p>The first is my &quot;set&quot; of Jefferson Nickels.&nbsp; When I see a quality Jefferson nickel, at a reasonable price, I buy it.&nbsp; I have no idea how complete my date/mm set is...it&#039;s something I&#039;ve been meaning to do, but just haven&#039;t made the time yet (paying bills, etc.)</p><p><br /></p><p>The second is a set of Lincoln Wheat Cents that I am putting together.&nbsp; I made a rule that every coin in the album should cost less than $5.&nbsp; Most cost less than $1.&nbsp; Most are at least AU, most are attractively toned UNC.&nbsp; I even have the 24d (VG) and 31s (XF) that I got in other groups of coins.&nbsp; I ended up selling the rest of the coins, getting my money back, so the good coins were basically free.</p><p><br /></p><p>The rest of the coins I have were paid for mostly in this way.&nbsp; Buy 3, keep 1.&nbsp; If you can, always keep the nicest of the group.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I agree with the above posting about buyers not wanting to purchase an entire set...they will pick out the best ones and only want to buy them...so you won&#039;t get full retail for that complete set.&nbsp; Seen it happen over and over...at least 100 wheat cent sets that are 98% complete...missing all the keys and nice coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
