[QUOTE="kanga, post: 1349850, member: 9270"]A type set is generally composed of coins that are common dates for the issue. To me a type set is a way to show others what the coins were intended to look like. Thus I tend to want better grades. Originally I was after XF or better for my set. Now that all I need are coins from the 1790's I've dropped a grade to VF. But that's it! I've looked at coins graded Fine and they just don't do it for me. Of course this means, short of winning the lottery, my type set will never be completed. But the nice thing about a type set is that you can define your own content and quality. It's your toy; you get to make the rules. Personally I prefer to have a common date AU/MS Barber quarter than a G/VG 1913-S. BTW, I use the NGC Registry Set definition of a type set rather than the Dansco 7070. The NGC Registry Set is a bit more comprehensive.[/QUOTE]
