jack jeckel Pillar of the Community United States 5208 Posts	Posted 07/06/2013 11:30 pm What sets do you already have? Low budget is LMC, Roosevelt dimes 1965 to date, SBA 1979-1999, State Quarters, 1965-1998 quarters, Jefferson nickels, 1940 to date Lincoln cents, Kennedy halves, and then if you want to skip key dates with the least amount of holes V nickels, Indian Head cents, Roosevelt silver dimes, Mercury dimes, Barber dimes, Baber Quarters, Barber halves . . . . I have most of above said sets (except the Barbers) complete or almost down to the last 2. Report this Post to the Staff
tbromme New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 07/07/2013 12:33 am In all honesty I don't really have any sets completed. Just some nicer coins that I've bought and or inherited. But I can tell you my budget is high enough to complete a set of Franklin halves that have decent grades, which is what I've decided on for now. It will be gradual, but sweet when it's finished.

smokeriderdon Pillar of the Community United States 3755 Posts	Posted 07/08/2013 11:51 am Jefferson Nickels. A great set to collect and not super expensive. There are enough coins that getting the whole set in same grade will take a good bit of time so you will be well occupied with it. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinDan98 Pillar of the Community United States 1053 Posts	Posted 07/08/2013 8:02 pm I too have a limited budget, the most I've ever spent on one coin was $45. I have almost complete Lincoln set 1930-date. Just missing 1970 SD and the SD 1960's. I also am working on a dansco 7070 type set, and that has been extremely fun to work on. I can just buy whatever type of coin I feel like, and have a handy space in an album to store it. I know you have decided on Franklin halves, which are a great choice, but I'm always more fond of type sets. Report this Post to the Staff
