I went to my LCS and got an AU 1893 Colombian Expo Half Dollar that I had been eyeballing since last week, and I got two Wheat Cents: an MS65 1955-S and an MS66 1955-D. Both graded by NGC. Now, my idea is to collect ALL Wheat Cents from 1909-1958 and ALL mint marks. I have plenty of wheat cents (rolls and rolls of them), but none that are nice, high-grade coins. In this collection, I want to collect all graded Wheat Cents between the grades of MS63 and MS67. This is going to be a long-term project, but I feel like it will be one that is worth the time and effort and won't be too expensive, at least initially. I am breaking it down into 'short-sets', so like today I got (2) 1955 Wheat Cents, so my first 'short-set' will be 1954-1958. After that I will start on 1949-1953, and so-on until the collection is complete.</p><p> </p><p>Now, I am wondering, has anyone else here done this?
