<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gronnh20, post: 4218282, member: 73224&quot;]I have been trying to build this set for the past 3 years.&nbsp; I have 35 of the coins toward the set.&nbsp; I have bought more than enough bad coins from eBay.&nbsp; I have also purchased most of the coins for the set through eBay.&nbsp; The few I have not purchased through eBay, I have purchased at local coin shows.&nbsp; The coin shows are good for in hand viewing.&nbsp; I got some of the early dates at the coin show, rather than, eBay.</p><p><br /></p><p>After buying a few bad single quarters from eBay, I don&#039;t trust any rolls.&nbsp; Unless, the roll is offered up at melt.&nbsp; The bad quarters I have bought from eBay end up in a junk silver tube.&nbsp; I don&#039;t return them so the seller can sell it again.&nbsp; I quit buying the quarters with pictures in only a 2x2 cardboard holder.&nbsp; That is where I had the most problem coins.&nbsp; With the bad experiences I have encountered, rolls from online anyone is a no go.</p><p><br /></p><p>My input for your dilemma is to go to the local coin shows.&nbsp; A lot of people bring grandpa&#039;s collection/hoard to sell.&nbsp; Plus you can network with dealers that will help you locate what you need.&nbsp; It is a lot of work to look through thousands of quarters, but, if you want to find the good stuff, it takes a little digging.&nbsp; Wouldn&#039;t be treasure if everyone had the <i>shinny</i> ones.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>P.S.
