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.
Regards Tony

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.

I don't collect by the series. I'm putting togather a type set of NGC certified coins. I need 13 to complete the set.

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. Ralph

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. -XoG

Quote: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.

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