[QUOTE="kanga, post: 860232, member: 9270"]I am doing my type set differently. Since I'm buying better grade coins, I buy them slabbed [U]and keep them slabbed[/U]. So I use Eagle Certified Coin albums to hold them. Plus I wasn't interested in types issued after 1964 so I'm missing many of the coins other people have. I started by going through the Red Book and using it to guide me to what I thought a type set should be composed of. Then I went to the NGC Registry Set and compared my list to theirs. I found I had missed one (Type 2 SLQ with Recessed Date - 1925-1930). I added it to my list. But I also found that I had included one that NGC didn't (Large Cent - Matron Head Modified - 1837-1839). So the basis of my type set is the NGC Registry Set (1793-1964) [U]plus[/U] one. I'm missing [U]only[/U] one 20th century coin, the 1907 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, High Relief. I'm also missing many 18th century varieties. As nearly as I can tell, these gaps will remain.[/QUOTE]
