    20th Century type set coins. I'm also looking out for good deals on silver coins under spot, and I'll occasionally get a Royal Canadian Mint coin if it catches my eye.

    Everything business strike and circulated (but UNC if it's really really cheap)

    Indian Head and Lincoln Cents
    Jeff Nickels
    Roosie and Merc Dimes
    Wash Quarters
    Walking Liberty, Franklin, and JFK Halves
    Sac and Pres Dollars (I'll get around to SBA and Ikes)

    I have a bunch of Morgans and Peace dollars, and I put them in albums, but I can't say I really collect them (I'm just saving them)

    I'm thinking of, maybe, upgrading my Jeff nickel set to Unc, since it seems affordable to do so . . .

    And I'm thinking of starting a 20th Cent Type set . . .

    Well, I'm a metal detectorist, when your a 'detectorist' you have certain goals to archive. For most its getting the shallow mercury dime, or just enjoying the great outdoors while getting some very much needed excerise. But for me my goal is too find as many Wheat cents a possible and collect, value, and pass down through generations.

    Have not decided yet, just sorting through pennies trying to get the hang of things.

    My affliction <dry humor> is original surface double eagles, both Libs and Saints. A very costly hobby nowadays.

    Get on those Frankies sooner than later. Prices are really collector friendly now. The bottom has been falling out on them as of late (even the top-pops have been hit...not as hard as the lower grades, but the series as a whole is becomming Rodney Dangerfield-like).

    Filling up the Dansco P,D with Proofs and Silver Proofs If applicable. Most keys are in plastic.

    Indian head cents
    wheeties
    Lincoln memorial cents (close, I am missing some keys and some commons)
    Winged liberty Dimes (completed) This was my first set I started with.
    Rosie Dimes (completed)
    Silver washington quarters (close to finished)
    Clad Washington quarters (Close to completed)
    State Quarters P,D,S and Silver (completed)
    Kennedy halves (Close to finished)
    Sac Dollars (Up to Date)
    Commemorative coins representing Civil War (War of Northern Aggression:)) or Revolutionary War

    As you can see its mostly modern stuff. For all after 1995 Ive gotten everything from uncirc. sets, proof and silver proof sets. I really have started enjoying the Kennedy halves, I'm working to close this one out.

    I would like get more into the cents but in not so good with copper and have made a few costly mistakes with them. So for now they are on hold. I have a the danscos for the nickels buffalo and Jefferson, but not actively working on them.

    For the near future, I will start
    Franklin Halves
    Eisenhower dollars
    Peace and Morgans (I have about 10 Morgans already)
    I really would like to start an Carson City type set
    Maybe getting my Mercs more uniform in VF or better for most.
    Of course I will start the America the beautiful series. I would love to get the large 5oz silver size also, I wish they had done that with the states.
