Be very selective.I have 3 raw sets and many toners I like natural album toners. Ikes are not real popular and you can build a great set with patience and learn about these coins at the same time. No real stoppers 73 S silver proof and IKE 72 type 2 are a little costly but you can find them slabbed pretty reasonable. I think a Slabbed set MS65 is also a really good set to build you can find them at fair prices.
