<p>[QUOTE="treylxapi47, post: 1700709, member: 41863"]Sounds to me like what you are wanting is a Type set, which would include a coin from every denomination starting at any time period you want and ending at any time period you choose.</p><p><br /></p><p>I chose to set my Type set up as something that is affordable and still challenging at the same time and the thing is you can customize to however you like. Right now I have a spreadsheet that i keep track of what I have with. Ill post some pictures in a minute, and you will be able to see where I chose to include some different types of the same coin (if it was a major type in the easier series like the 'V' Nickel, i have 2 examples one with 'CENTS' and a 'NO CENTS' variety). The thing is, I can also use my spreadsheet and adapt my Type set to whatever i want. For instance, for the seated liberty series you will see that i only have one space for those coins, my original thinking was that they were just too expensive for nice example to really go after more than one at a time, but after having acquired a couple seated coins i found I really like them and I REALLY, <u><b>REALLY,</b></u> like the seated half and dollar with arrows and rays, still be adding a place for those 2 coins in my set. I also pick up coins that i know should be included in a type set, and can add spaces for those later if i decide to include them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway here are some screenshots of my Type-Set in progress:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]259397.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH]259398.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH]259399.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH]259400.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
