Been a little while since I posted, but I just retook the pics for this collection. The 44-S is in the process of being replaced, it's kinda ugly on the reverse. All are MS-66 or better. Just 5 more to go! https://plus.google.com/photos/1020...tnerid=pwrd1

I'm not a big fan of the Lincoln Cent but your collection is quite something to behold. Congratulations for assembling such a gorgeous set. Ed ANA LM-3175

Very nice. Once complete, will you start working backwards from 34?

I don't know if you missed it or not, but they made a steel cent in 1944 and a copper cent in 1943 and I don't see those two coins in your set.... Jk it's an amazing set!

Stunning (as expected from you), have you thought about adding the proofs to your set?

Thanks for the props! To answer a couple of questions, here goes. I'll probably stick to just the MS pieces and no proofs. It's possible I'll get an early one as type, if the look and price is right.
As for going before 1934, that might be pretty tough! The prices really start to jump, starting with the 1931-D and S. I did manage to cross an NGC 1933-D 66 RD into a PCGS 66+ RD holder recently, so maybe you can stay I started! I'll probably stop at 1932 if I do continue.
I've been working on this set since 2006, so hopefully it will be complete soon, but no rush!
