[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 285462, member: 2972"]In general a matched set will "look" the best to the widest audience, and that generally means business struck coins due to the price of early type coins in proof (if they even exist!). However, because the one whose opinion matters most is YOURS, what the widest audience likes may not be what you decide. Personally, I really like the look of the late 1800 and early 1900 proofs. Their quality resembles the proofs of today, so I chose to collect them. Your mileage may vary. Good luck...Mike[/QUOTE]
