[QUOTE="Arizona Jack, post: 700298, member: 9308"]I think the set builder who works on a vg/f /vf set can pretty much complete a set with some hard work and a few bucks.. If and only if you decide to really pursue a high end XF or better set, the actual " meat " of Lincoln collecting comes into play. You will find 9 dozen examples of a sweet XF/AU SVDB before you will find ONE 1921-S, 23-S etc etc. Thats 24-S is tricky as well. Get a grade and a look/ color/ and make every attempt to match your set. As a dealer who buys, nothing is more impressive than a well matched set in any grade, but that primo XF/AU will surely bring a primo offer and throw the greysheet away. If you have a primo set, you are in control. Any knoweledgable Lincoln dealer will spot the quality and be wiling to pay top bucks. It takes patience and knowledge of the series, but even us circulated grade folks can build primo sets that will turn heads. Spend more time than money.[/QUOTE]
