<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tcore, post: 93958, member: 2949&quot;]Well, currently my main goal is to put together my gold Liberty set.&nbsp; By that, here is what I mean.&nbsp; I like the Liberty gold coin designs.&nbsp; So, I thought I&#039;d put together a small set of 1 each of the Liberty denominations.&nbsp; So, what I&#039;m looking at is as follows: $1 - Type 1, $2.5, $5, $10 and $20.&nbsp; I&#039;m not sticking to a certain Type on the other denominations (as long as they&#039;re the Liberty designs), only thought I&#039;d mention the $1.&nbsp; Would you call that a &quot;Liberty Type Set&quot;?&nbsp; I&#039;m not sure.&nbsp; Oh, also just because I like that they&#039;re from a different century, I&#039;m sticking in the 1800&#039;s.&nbsp; So, that rules out coins from 1900-1907 for me.&nbsp; I&#039;m trying to just buy what I can afford for now and make sure that they have good eye appeal.&nbsp; I&#039;m also trying to to buy that absolute most common coins if I can avoid it.&nbsp; So far, I have the $5 and $10.&nbsp; My $5 is an 1880-S graded AU58 and my $10 is an 1896 graded MS61.&nbsp; I may upgrade once the set is complete some day, who knows.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other thing I decided to do is buy a nice coin from each of my family member&#039;s birth years...one for Mom, Dad, brother, wife and me.&nbsp; So far, I haven&#039;t acquired any yet, but I&#039;ve been looking.&nbsp; I&#039;m not sure about denomination.&nbsp; I&#039;m thinking about keeping them all the same denom., but not sure.</p><p><br /></p><p>Other than that, I just buy coins here and there that I like.&nbsp; I&#039;ve got a few modern AGE, my 1831 half, modern platinum Eagle, etc.&nbsp; Oh, and just as of yesterday or so, I&#039;ve got myself interested in acquiring a Russian gold coin or two.&nbsp; I&#039;m thinking maybe 5 or 10 Rouble from around the Nicholas II period.&nbsp; We&#039;ll see!</p><p><br /></p><p>I almost forgot.&nbsp; I also like the Roman Imperial Bronzes.&nbsp; Those are neat!&nbsp; I&#039;ve got a few right now.&nbsp; Octavius Augustus As, Caligula As, etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
