[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 2312360, member: 46237"]My main US set is a graded die marriage set for small capped bust quarters (1831-1838). There are 36 marriages in all (38 if you count collar changes within a marriage) with 8 of the marriages with a rarity of 4+ or higher, including an R8. I'm trying for AU examples with great eye appeal (at least for R1-R3) with preference given to late/terminal die states. In 2015 I picked up 5 quarters for this set, two of which were upgrades: [LIST] [*]1831 B-5 (R3) Large Letters NGC AU55 [LIST] [*]Late die state, rainbow toning [/LIST] [*]1835 B-2 (R2) NGC AU55 (looks 58 to me) (Upgrade) [LIST] [*]Late die state, bright with russet peripheral toning [/LIST] [*]1835 B-6 (R2) NGC AU50 [LIST] [*]Late die state, electric blue peripheral toning [/LIST] [*]1836 B-1 (R2) NGC AU50 (Upgrade) [LIST] [*]Terminal die state, darkly toned [/LIST] [*]1837 B-1 (R3) PCGS AU50 CAC [LIST] [*]Terminal die state, cyan peripheral toning [/LIST] [/LIST] This brings me up to 14/36 - 39% complete.[/QUOTE]
