<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 2258822, member: 17665"]Considering their age and the history behind them, I think the Liberty Seated Dimes are not only under priced but very affordable in a mid grade fine condition. Set aside about 6 key dates that might set you back and you could have a nice affordable and historical set of coins. Especially true if eliminating varieties and staying with a standard collection of years and mint marks. Of course there are going to be key coins in every series that many of us will never be able to touch, I think now is a better time than later to fill out a collection of these, especially for younger collectors who will have time to watch this series appreciate in value. IMHO Morgan's have always been over rated, the biggest, baddest coin to collect and done in my hawkers on TV, etc. The 1909VDB-S is a must for any Lincoln collection regardless of the hype. The 1922 Plain is a variety/error which has no place in a regular collection. Large Cents starting at 1808 are also a good bet in mid grade. A nice collection of Liberty Seated Halves from 1853-1978P in Fine 15 is also possible with the exception of the 1874CC. There's a lot out there with a lot of upside potential that is classic and affordable without any hype.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
