<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Skyman, post: 2558441, member: 28299&quot;]Good luck... it&#039;s ADDICTIVE!!!</p><p><br /></p><p>I first started with the series building a slabbed toned registry set.&nbsp; I just did the 1940 - 1964 coins (no over mint marks) as much of the cost to the set is the 1932 - 1939 group.&nbsp; I had a lot of fun building the set, with most coins in the MS66 range (some MS65 for the tougher date/mm and some MS67 for the easier date/mm).&nbsp; After completing about 80% of the set, I went WTF and decided to build a raw 1940 - 1964 toned Dansco set.</p><p><br /></p><p>That was the plan... then OCD kicked in.&nbsp; At first it came up by saying to myself, &quot;Ah, this second (name your date/mm) looks better than the first one I bought, so I&#039;ll get it too&quot;.&nbsp; I&#039;ve now finally gotten myself to stop (more or less) after completing two Danscos, and am in the process finishing off the THIRD Dansco.&nbsp; I&#039;d say most of the coins are in the MS63 - MS65 range. </p><p><br /></p><p>Along the way another itch started niggling, and I decided to turn one of the Danscos into an (almost) complete set, by including the years 1932 - 1938 and 1965 - 1985.&nbsp; I stopped at 1985 because it is the end of the Dansco page where there is still some relief to the coins.&nbsp; The &quot;flat&quot; design of the 1990&#039;s Washingtons does not appeal to me at all.&nbsp; Anyhow the earlier 1930&#039;s coins are in the XF/AU range, while the latter 1930&#039;s ones are mainly AU58 - MS63.&nbsp; The clad coins are AU58 - MS65.&nbsp; Of the 1930&#039;s, I still need the 1938-P.&nbsp; Of the 1965 - 1985 I still need 10 date/mm.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have been posting my 1940 - 1942 A &amp; B Dansco sets over the last X months.&nbsp; You can probably find some of the threads by searching for specific dates.</p><p><br /></p><p>... And yes, along the way I DID finish the slabbed 1940 - 1964 Registry set, here is the link to it.&nbsp; ALL the coins are imaged, so you can click either on the individual coin to see that specific coin, or you can click on the &quot;Gallery&quot; button to see all the coins.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.www.collectors-society.com/registry/coins/SetListing.aspx?PeopleSetID=112811&amp;Ranking=all" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.www.collectors-society.com/registry/coins/SetListing.aspx?PeopleSetID=112811&amp;Ranking=all" rel="nofollow">http://coins.www.collectors-society.com/registry/coins/SetListing.aspx?PeopleSetID=112811&amp;Ranking=all</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
