<p>[QUOTE="Murphy45p, post: 3461384, member: 96005"]For those thinking of beginning this type of set, for me it was all about grade and budget. And once I got started, I ended up upping both. That tends to be a recurring theme I've noticed. My original budget was $50/month, any grade. Problem was, that once I was able to acquire some coins at higher grades at that price point (I shoot for XF at minimum at this point), the coins next to them weren't as appealing. Plus my eyesight is poor, and deeply toned coins are hard for me to make out details. </p><p><br /></p><p>The set can certainly be completed at the $50 and under range for most coins, the seated dollars, some of the large cents and half cents, and twenty cent piece may be difficult there, but I have raised my monthly budget to $200, which accomodates my grading requirements fairly well, and often I can acquire several coins in a given month at that price level.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
