Hey all, we will be back from the dead!! Here is the thing, I am missing 3 coins from the 7070 but I just don't like the coins and I really don't like what you get for the price so the 3 missing coins have been on hold. Does it mean, I won't get them? Not really I might say what the heck and buy them eventually but I may not buy them. I recently acquired a few pre 1933 gold coins and while not technically part of this, they are part of Page 5. SO.... @J-Buck I need a favor... Can you change the title from Hfjacinto's NGC Registry 7070 Type Set to: HFJacinto's slabbed Dansco 7070 with Gold Page Here is the new link: https://www.ngccoin.com/registry/co...sets/472475/I'm even doubtful, I'll get NGC/PCGS slabbed coin as there is a nice type 2 $1 gold in ICG slab, but the gold page is much more likely to get completed rather than the 3 missing coins So enjoy the long slow ride.

First pre 1933 gold and really one of my favorite designs in coins ever. Both being incuse and with no rim and just being a really pleasing to to the eye coin. The $2.5 Indian

Very nice! 
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."

Beautiful quarter-eagle, hfjacinto! I'm also a big fan of the incuse design, though it make grading raw examples a lot tougher in my mind!

Good replenishment. I have heard that this type of coin is very often forged. But I have a question. Have you complicated your task by adding gold? I looked at your list of missing coins and it looks like you are missing: 1C CLASSIC HEAD (1808-1814), S$1 SEATED LIBERTY, NO MOTTO (1840-1865), S$1 SEATED LIBERTY, WITH MOTTO (1866-1873). Not the simplest coins. I am particularly scared of the prices of Seated dollars. But a good deal takes a lot of time. Therefore, I wish you to find a good coin at an adequate price. Good luck

Have you complicated your task by adding gold? @Slerk, yes I am complicating my task, but I haven't purchased the missing coins that I was missing and I wasn't planning on buying them, but I have wanted the gold coins. So if going to buy a coin anyway why not add them to my type set?

Thanks JBuck! Today we get another $2.50 gold coin. My dealer actually had 3 of these and this one had the best eye appeal of the group.
