<p>[QUOTE=&quot;10gary22, post: 1267364, member: 23626&quot;]Sure, you can collect a set any way you want to. People even collect year sets without the mints. Some collect Roosevelt dimes without the proofs. And most people just collect what the folders have holes for. Ya know, I&#039;ve seen them without slots for the 60 &amp; 60 D sm date nor the 70 S sm date even. ALL I am saying is that when collecting the Lincoln Memorial series, the transition coins are a part of it. But kinda like with the 1943 copper cent (if it ever existed), not everyone will be able to get one. There are those who do want the rare ones though. I mean I find the transitions more desirable that die varieties, because with the transitions, the mint made a mistake. They didn&#039;t get the dies done at the same time and sent some mules out. But it&#039;s kinda like the recent sale of the 1992 CAM on eBay for $12,000. Nobody needs it for a set. But with only a single known die and with more than 33,000 ANA members, an estimated 2,000,000 + collectors, some people are attracted by the rarity alone. I don&#039;t care as much about the 98-00 WAMs, because having the proof die used for a business strike isn&#039;t that interesting. Like the type B Washingtons. I mean, I do save them, mount them, etc.&nbsp; but would LOVE to get a 92 D &amp; 92 CAM. And I hope to eventually. I would like to be the first person to register a Lincoln Memorial Set&nbsp; COMPLETE with the 4 transition coins!&nbsp; Just sayin&#039;, I mean how cool would that be ? Right now there might only be 1 person in the whole US that could say that, and I don&#039;t think he has the 92 CAM. So there is still a chance to be the first. lol I been looking like crazy for those 92s too !</p><p><br /></p><p>gary[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
