Just my opinion, but try to stick to a set without any super expensive keys, sets like that usually equal a uncompleted set. At least for me it did. I am doing a date set of Large Cents from 1816 to 1857 VG - VF not super expensive but a fine set if I ever complete it ! Also Proof Ike's and Kennedy's, another nice set.

Like was said Rossevelt's, Franklins, but I think Buffalo's are a beautiful set to tackle next.

I would recommend Franklin halves. I started a set last year and I am 3 coins away from completing it. Its a very easy set to complete and is quite affordable.

Congratulations!

I have a complete set of "cheap" dollars, including SAC, SAB, and Eisenhower. That's why I call myself dollarcoins. I plan to work on a set of Peace dollars. However, I don't believe that I can have a complete set of Morgan dollars.

An update since my last post here.....

I had the good fortune to find the 1909S and a 1914D Lincoln Wheat Cents - a 1913S TII Buffalo nickel (completes that set of business strikes - no varieties yet) plus I got the 1885CC Morgan as well as an 1889CC Morgan.

For business strikes Presidential dollars are definately the easiest out of all the series to complete from circulation. I think franklins are moderately easy with some patience, I managed to finish mine from circulation. Sacagawea's, Jefferson nickels, and Kennedy halves are also possible to complete from circulation.

I am finally finishing my Barber dime set and just wondering what other sets people enjoy collecting, without breaking the bank, since I need something new to collect? I was thinking Buffalo nickles?


Mercury dimes. Available in many places for decent prices. Easy to comlete that set. A little tuff if you include the 16D, 42/41 stuff though.

I have a complete Mercury dime set minus the 16-D, I'm working on a Standing Liberty quarter set, and I'm considering later on working on Walking Liberty halves.

if you completed the dimes, and considering the cost of the three quarter keys, look at the $1/2 sets.
