Very nice looking coins ... I bet they look really good in the set. I know it feels great to get a couple more holes
filled.

If you want a complete type set, you need the Whitman Bookshelf Type Set albums which covered every type listed in RedBook when the albums came out including all 5 Half Cents varieties. And might I wish you good luck in advance in trying to fill that complete set. If you want to take a go at it, let me know, I might have an extra album in my storage that I would sell you cheap, no coins included.

However, the 7070 was designed to include coins minted from the 19th century onward.


Ah ha!
I didn't know that.
From now on I won't be as harsh on the 7070 as I've been.

I have ALL of the Red Book 19th/20th century listed non-gold types.
But understand that I terminate my type set at 1964, i.e., I don't include the clad-era coins.
I'm working on the 18th century issues BUT short of winning the lottery I'll never get them all.

As for gold coins I have a complete NGC Registry short set (nothing earlier than 1834 issues).
And, yes, I have a 1907 Saint-Gaudens High Relief Double Eagle (Wire Rim variety).

All my type set coins are slabbed so an album isn't necessary.

My non-gold type set is in the NGC Registry and is ranked 12th.
My short set gold type set is in the NGC Registry and is ranked 28th.

I can provide links if you want to see.
All the coins have images.
Rest in Peace

@kanga, If you need a more complete type set album try the Library of Coins type set. It'll be a little more challenging.

Lovely coins jbuck and great additions. I have toyed with the idea of a 7070 for a long time ... might eventually come around.

Best of wishes to you for whatever is need for the set.

Hmmmm, I'm not familiar with that.
I'll have to take a look.

But the reason I went with the NGC Registry Set is because:
-- I can put it online
-- it accepts both NGC and PCGS coins (PCGS accepts ONLY their own coins)
