<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Murphy45p, post: 3659487, member: 96005&quot;]I&#039;m working on my own type set, based off the 7070 definition, but I realize it&#039;s limited.&nbsp; I have a large cent that predates that definition, and coins began being minted in 1792, all of those are excluded from the Dansco as well, and some of those are cost prohibitive for me.&nbsp; Plus, there are all the gold coins too.&nbsp; I haven&#039;t tried to tackle those yet either.</p><p><br /></p><p>For me, part of the appeal was the album itself.&nbsp; It&#039;s my preferred storage method.&nbsp; How will you be storing the coins?&nbsp; For me, the album removes the temptation to go for the very highest of grades in rare coins because no way I&#039;d want to crack those out and no way I&#039;m purchasing that sort of coin uncertified.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Dansco is limited.&nbsp; 50 different state quarters were minted, yet only one is included in the album for instance.&nbsp; Ditto with the commems.&nbsp; Your definition of a type set seems very reasonable, and if you intend to match the 2 cent coin, then you&#039;ll be best going with slabbed coins and keeping them that way it sounds like.&nbsp; Good luck!&nbsp; It&#039;s a blast!&nbsp; I&#039;ve been working on mine for a couple of years and I only have about 8 more coins to acquire to complete the set, although I will likely do a few upgrades before I call the project finished.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
