[QUOTE="Fish, post: 490959, member: 6034"]There are almost too many candidates for easiest, so instead I'll suggest something different. Something that would be a small challenge but still obtainable as well as being different. Consider two cent pieces. A date set is very short, and there are a number of neat varieties to watch for while you're shopping - I like to think of cherrypicking opportunities, personally. And even if you included major varieties you've still got a pretty short set in front of you. For hardest there are a number of candidates. I can think of a few types of collections one could start where one or more coins that would fit are unique, sometimes with others having less than a dozen examples known. I think challenging but obtainable is a more interesting list. And no bonus points for pointing out that the set I'm collecting has one unique coin in it. That's just bad form. :-)[/QUOTE]
