Message:: [QUOTE="mark_h, post: 224878, member: 3726"]Could be - you maybe happy with what you have and move on to something new.  In my case my set is g to ms64.  The two major keys are graded vf30, but I secretly think vf20.  Happy with both of those.  For the minor keys 70-72 they are good - I bought them mainly because I knew they would migrate into my Dansco album.  So the 70-72 are just g and I will try to upgrade them to at least VF20.  I probably should have said "details" on the grade range - I was reviewing them again and think the 1882 was possibly re-colored, the 1888 was cleaned.  Don't get me wrong - the 1888 is toning, but to me it is clearly artificial, but interesting.  And there might be one or two others that I will replace.  I am thinking about getting a whole batch of them graded by ANACs - most of the set is already graded might as well make it complete. As for some of the other questions - I need two dates to have complete shield nickel date set.  I am sure you know those two dates.  Plus I am probably always going to be working on my large cent collection. I am not sure where I am going on that.  Then again I am thinking about buying a few other types of coins - like half cent, two cent, bust half.  I have also been thinking about a complete 1909 copper set. So lots of options - but have to stay in budget for a while.[/QUOTE]
