<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 490094, member: 66"]Another candidate for hardest, and it is a real short set. Draped bust small eagle half dollars. Only need two coins for a full date set, three coins if you want all the dates and die varieties. And every one of them will cost you five figures in Good. Not to mention that there are only something like 180 coins total known for all three varieties combined.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are lots of candidates for easiest. SBA dollars just by date and mint not variety. Sac dollar only "key" is the 01-S and even that is within the reach of most every collector even the YN's. And they are all easily available. For a very easy old series how about the flying eage cent? Only need two coins, three if you want both large and small letter 58's, and a VF set is within easy reach for all but the poorest YN's. And they could do it in Fine. Braided hair large cents, 1857 a little more costly but not out of reach, and it is another older set that can be affordably built in VF or better by many collectors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
