<p>[QUOTE="Tall Paul, post: 24892484, member: 114635"]I rewrote that entry a lot to keep it from being too wordy. I should have mentioned as I did in my earlier rewrites that my definition of complete would exclude certain coins either because of rarity or expense. You just pointed out two of them, I do have all of the other classic gold commemoratives. Other examples of coins that I will not have in my "complete" sets are a Four Dollar Stella for the gold type set, and gold, half cent, and large cent examples for the pattern set. My US Type set is missing six coins: a 1793 half cent, a Chain Cent, the Half Disme, the 1796 Quarter and Half Dollars, and a Gobrecht Dollar. All of those coins plus examples of Capped Bust and Draped Bust gold coins are on my "if I won the lottery or if I could work as hard as panzerman list." The reference to you is a compliment. I worked hard as a youngster, but old age has caught up with me. The days of 54 second quarter miles and five minute miles are long gone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
