<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cringely, post: 775867, member: 22271&quot;]I particularly like type sets. The Dansco Type set album has slots for most (but not all) type coins minted after 1800. I’ve managed to fill my book, but would like to assemble a more complete collection of type coins. Unfortunately, the Dansco book does not have openings for any of the draped bust or earlier silver type coins. To my knowledge, Dansco has the most complete US Type Set book.</p><p>Does anyone know if there exists a more complete type set book?</p><p><br /></p><p>My question to the forum is: how many of you would also be interested in a more complete album?</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; if there is interest, perhaps we could start a letter campaign to Dansco</p><p><br /></p><p>In particular, I’d like to see a Dansco style type set book that included:</p><p>1/2¢: 1793, 1794-97 Liberty Cap</p><p>1¢;&nbsp; chain, wreath &amp; Liberty Cap</p><p>perhaps all three silver types</p><p>1/2 dime: flowing hair, draped bust (both small and heraldic eagles) </p><p>10¢: draped bust (both small and heraldic eagles); 1809-28 capped bust</p><p>25¢: draped bust (both small and heraldic eagles); 1815-28 capped bust</p><p>50¢: flowing hair, draped bust (both small and heraldic eagles) </p><p>$1: flowing hair, draped bust (both small and heraldic eagles).

One could also do all the earlier gold type coins, but that also is well beyond the budget of 97% (2 sigmas) of collectors.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; <b>US Type Coins 1800-Date Album #7070</b></p><p>1/2¢:&nbsp; 1800-08 draped bust; 1809-35 classic head; 1849-57 Coronet </p><p>Large ¢:&nbsp; 1798-07 draped bust; 1808-14 classic head; 1816-39 &amp; 1840-57 Coronets</p><p>Small ¢:&nbsp; 1857-58 FE; 1859, 1860-64, 1864-1909 Indians, 1909vdb, 1909-58, 1943, 1959-date Lincolns</p><p>2¢</p><p>3¢ silver, 3¢ Nickel</p><p>1/2 dime:&nbsp; 1829-37 capped bust; 1837-59, 1853-55, 1860-73 liberty seateds</p><p>5¢:&nbsp; 1866-67, 1867-83 shields; 1883, 1883-1912 Lib head, 1913, 1913-38 Buffalos; 1938-date, 1942-45, Jeffersons</p><p>10¢:&nbsp; 1828-37 capped bust; 1838-60, 1853-55, 1860-91 Liberty Seateds; 1892-1916 Barber; 1916-45 Mercury; 1946-64, 1965-date Roosevelts</p><p>20¢:&nbsp; </p><p>25¢:&nbsp; 1831-38 capped bust; 1838-65, 1853-55, 1866-91 Liberty Seateds; 1892-1916 Barber; 1916-17, 1917-30 Lib standing; 1932-64, 1964 date Washington</p><p>50¢:&nbsp; 1807-36, 1936-39 capped bust; 1839-65, 1853-55, 1866-91 Liberty Seateds; 1892-1915 Barber; 1916-47 Walkers; 1948-63 Franklin; 1964, 1965-date Kennedy</p><p>four (4) slots for commemorative half dollars</p><p>$1: 1840-65, 1866-73 Liberty Seateds; 1873-83 Trade; 1878-1921 Morgan; 1921-35 Peace; 1971-78 Ike</p><p>Bicentennial 25¢, 59¢, $1</p><p>SBA $, Sac $, 50 state quarter</p><p>slot for commemorative dollar.
