<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TypeCoin971793, post: 2741998, member: 78244&quot;]I had no rhyme or reason for how I filled my type set. I just bought what was available while I could afford it. A lot of the more-expensive types have problems because I&#039;d rather pay less for a high-detail coin than more for a problem-free low-detail coin. The point of my type set is to showcase all of the designs produced by the US, and I feel that goal is moot if I cannot see the details. I will upgrade to problem-free when I have a more-sufficient cash base (or when I find a really good deal, like $25 for an AU Barber Quarter), but right now I am happy with what I have.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, recently I made it a challenge for myself to knock out as many types as possible with a single year. Major dates would be 1854, 1873, and 1909, for example.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also have a bunch of fakes in my type set album, mostly of types I cannot afford, since I do not looking at holes and the designs are fairly close to genuine coins. Ordering a type set of fakes is actually a great education, and you will be able to pick out 90% of the modern fakes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
