It's subjective, but I chose the Sally Ride one for my Type Set. You chose the Wong one.

A great purchase, my avations.
Who is Mikey? Who is Charlotte ? Is Mikey a local dealer ? Will you sell 2 out of 3 coins that you won by chance?

Who is Mikey? Mike is the owner of a local coin shop that I frequent Quote:
Who is Charlotte ? Charlotte is a city in North Carolina, one of the coins went to my friend Bob. It's a story that was told on my IHC and flying eagles thread. Basically Bob who lives in Charlotte picked a coin for me, instead of paying Bob money, he got 3 silver bullion coins and one of the 3 quarters I purchased. Quote:

It really was a trade, he was able to buy me a coin at a great cash price and shipped it to me and I shipped him 4 coins from my stash. I'm currently keeping 2 quarters but I may sell one if they get crazy priced.

Congrats ....... to do any set is really a monumental achievement regardless of what you are collecting as some of the coins in any set are difficult to obtain to say the least. Keep up the good work

When I started this set I posted the below: Quote:
8) My eventual goal is to get to the top 100, I would like to be in the top 50, but I'll doubt I'll spend that much. And I never really tried to compete with the best sets, I just buy what I like at a price I feel comfortable buying. Recently NGC must have cleaned up the registries, because I'm at 58. Which is way better than I ever expected. And while I have nowhere near a nice collection as the top 10. I like my set and am happy with what I have.  And while 58 is impressive to me as there are currently over 780 sets, I'm really surprised that I cracked the top 100 in the full US Type Set which has over 1300 registries. And I'm not even doing that set, it was just a way to add coins that I had purchased and had no sets.  |

Nice add, hfjacinto! I just today received two eBay purchases - a clad Maya Angelou quarter and silver Wilma Mankiller quarter - to bring my type set up to date.
