<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Endeavor, post: 2552274, member: 60292&quot;]This thread got me thinking about how many coin types, dates and mints have been made. I wonder what is the total number of coins it takes to acquire a truly complete set, up to present day. I also wonder how many there are by decade. My guess is that the last decade or two probably have more than the previous 5 decades combined. Making a truly complete collection up to present day a very daunting undertaking.</p><p><br /></p><p>In my view, I consider a complete set to be every coin made the way it was intended to be made by the Mint. In other words no errors or varieties that came about because of a flaw in the die or any such matter. Therefore, for example, I wouldn&#039;t consider the 1955 DDO cent a necessary piece to a complete collection. On the otherhand, I consider the 1909-S and 1909-S VDB to both be necessary pieces because both were created as intended.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
