[QUOTE="Brett_in_Sacto, post: 2637046, member: 71510"]So I don't have any pictures yet, but a link. This all started at a government surplus auction. I picked up a 70% complete set of Roosevelt dimes in PCGS holders back in early December. Well, I got a SCREAMING deal on them, and decided to go ahead and complete the set since they are pretty affordable as high end collections go. After completing the set with some modest purchases, I've now got the 35th ranked basic set of 1946-1964 Roosevelt Dimes in Business Strike. Actually there's a tie for 35th place between at least 3 of us. But who knows, maybe I will continue to better the set. Anyhow, it was very affordable for a "Top 100" set - certainly less than my Peace Dollar collection! It was fun picking out matching coins, and I'm into the set for well under $700 in total, since most were at auction for $300.
