I always enjoy looking at type sets. Thanks for posting yours. I think your off to a good start. I guess I am thinking different than some of the other that have posted here. If I bought that Pilgrim for my type set, then I would crack it out, and put it in the album. I think it is graded correctly and no real reason not to crack it. If it was a higher grade coin, MS 65 or better, I might think different. I think it would look great in your 7070. In the future you can always swap them out. Then you could put the Pilgrim in your Commemorative half dollar album you will start some day. I have switched mine several times. Right now I have Presidents. Washington, Madison, Lincoln and Grant. Jefferson in my commemorative dollar hole.  In my Intercept shield album, I went with all modern proofs.  I hope we can see more of your set as you fill those empty holes.

My budget was $150 or under for Half Cent to dime. $250 under for quarters to halves. $400 under for raw dollars. Coins added to my 7070 album. (two upgrades) Half Cents.. Classic & Coronet added.

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Quote: Below coins were purchased, even though I didn't need them for my 7070. I just like them. They look nice to me, too.
