crazyglue Valued Member United States 467 Posts	Posted 08/12/2014 11:31 am When I can afford it, I collect both a business strike version and a BU and proof version. The proof version is always BU for all coins. When I can't I don't. Also, with modern coins, such as Ike's, I don't bother collecting a business strike only-- I just go with the combo business/proof. Example: Roosevelt- I collect a circulated version and I collect a BU/Proof version both. So I have 2. Walking Liberty Half- I can afford a circulated business version, but could never complete a BU version. So just 1. ATB-- just proof/bu and only 1... My big exception is Washington quarters. I love them from 32-98. I have 3 versions going on now for full set and probably going to have a couple of 65-98 only versions BU going on soon. Report this Post to the Staff

hcmusicguy Pillar of the Community United States 814 Posts	Posted 08/12/2014 12:29 pm I do one business strike set of each that I collect. I don't go out of my way to do proofs, but will keep the ones I find in circulation. Although now that I'm finished with my one set of Ike dollars, I have thought about starting a second.

sirdizzy Valued Member United States 461 Posts	Posted 08/12/2014 12:57 pm Why yes I do. I am doing a 7070 and I decided to do 20th century type sets for both my boys this allowed me to upgrade a coin in my 7070 and then pass it down to there set (recently I just upgraded my AU58 Mercury dime for a ms63 version and passed it down to my little boys set). I was also thinking of doing a 20th century type set for me as I have had fun doing there sets and then a 20th and 21st century type set for me. This would give me 5 different US type sets.
