[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 912518, member: 13650"]Rickie, would you please cut that out. Now you're giving me ideas! :D That is a cool idea though! I love all the 1914 series notes anyway. I've had a, MS-63+ Franklins set going for a while now. I've got 9 to go. They look gorgeous in an intercept shield album. Almost need sun glasses to view them. I refuse to post a pic until it's complete though! It's a great set to work on. Not too big, not too small. Old, but not that old. A MS set is a doable task over time for most everybody. It's 12.6 ounces of silver when you're done, too. I try to pick up one or two I need at every show. I try to pick non-problem types which is not easy to do. Although, once you need the rarer ones (49 through 53s) you may not even find one example of any condition at a moderately sized show. Surprisingly. Many are plagued with white spots, haze, bag marks and other calamities that have befallen them along the way. Ready for that set to be done but just haven't hammered it out like I should have.[/QUOTE]
