<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 8507200, member: 19250&quot;]A perfect example is the Jefferson 71 S no S&nbsp; proof nickel. It was and wasn&#039;t counted. There was a space for it and I cannot recall how they handle it.&nbsp; As the mintage of 1731 pcs. However there&#039;s other series that have low mintages in the series. So my question is why? Why even consider it?&nbsp; As it isnt fair to those who cannot obtain one....nor is it fair to those who did.</p><p>One reason I gave up on sets in general years ago. Yes I do have sets some complete, some not... as an example my Mercury dime collection and IHC each are 1 coin short of completion.</p><p>Both sets are nice sets with coins that range from F to Au.+ I don&#039;t want a roached&nbsp; 16 D that doesn&#039;t match the other coins in the set...and same for the1877 IHC ....at one time I had one&nbsp; in xf but corroded.</p><p>It didn&#039;t match the others.... so whats the difference a hole or a coin thats unbecoming of the set?</p><p>To each their own....likes as well dislikes...for the record my collection has both&nbsp; detailed specimens as well as proof 70 and MS specimens ....each special in their own way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
