<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 1219173, member: 13650&quot;]I don&#039;t know what you&#039;re getting at but I think the commemoratives available from the US mint are abundant and for the most part pretty sweet.&nbsp;&nbsp; I collect some too.&nbsp; They account for about 15% of my collection.&nbsp; &nbsp; The 2008 Bald eagle set was awesome.&nbsp; I have the 3 coin set in PF-70.&nbsp;&nbsp; I picked up the 1992 Columbus coins ungraded, the 1892 Columbus is in my type set.&nbsp; Also got a MS-64 1920 Pilgrim half for the type set. That is a beautiful coin.&nbsp;&nbsp; I got a couple MS 08 Bald eagle commems for the type set as well, and of course the 82 Washington half in PF and MS.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I too picked up a Lincoln Chronicles set from the mint for $55.95.&nbsp; &nbsp; The 2006 S.F. mint commems are awesome.&nbsp; Got the $5 in MS70 and the $1 in PF ungraded .&nbsp; And several others.&nbsp; &nbsp; I&#039;ve always thought the commems were an untapped, under appreciated segment of the hobby.&nbsp;&nbsp; There are many beautiful examples.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t say there&#039;s a shortage.&nbsp; I only touched on a few.&nbsp; There are many more that I want.&nbsp;&nbsp; I guess I&#039;m thankful that they go over-looked so I can get them cheaper![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
