<p>[QUOTE="Ike Skywalker, post: 3024105, member: 82381"]Yes. This is what I’m currently doing with my Franklin Half set- replacing the proofs with circulated examples. I want a consistent circulated cameo look to the set. The proofs just don’t look like they belong there (in the Dansco).</p><p><br /></p><p>I would recommend doing a buffalo nickel set. I really enjoyed building mine. I didn’t concern myself so much with full horns as I did full dates and mms. A full date is what I cared about the most. I don’t have the 1918/7 or the 3 legger, but I still consider my set complete. I can’t remember how long it took me to finish, but I spent $1760 doing it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
