Alpha - I think what is confusing some of us (since this is the CRH forum) is the percentage of your Jeff set that you completed with just one box. I completed a 2015 objective to complete a set at 90% by year end but soon realized that 90% is an easy objective. By my results, I could have completed the challenge after 3 boxes if I wasn't fussy about the grade of coin filling a spot. I did not inventory though how far I could have gotten on a single box.

Does your data include purchased coins? If so, what percentage where purchased (relative to the 174 needed)?

Loco,

That must have been from a dump. There is no way you could get a box that great by random.

You're saying you'd throw back a 38?

Great finds! I'm going to pick up a box or two this week! Wish me luck!
BTW, do any of you know where to buy new/used Danscos?
I need one, but I'd prefer to get one that includes the proof holes.
Looking to spend under $20. Maybe $25.
Thanks!

I got my 7070 at an LCS for $25 a few years ago and my 7113 (Jefferson vol. 1 no proofs) on Amazon for about $30. Both new.
