How about a short set of Walking Libertys.
1940 to 1947 can be done in AU, some in MS for under $50.00 a coin.
In MS-61 the 41-S would be a little bit over but still could be done.
Prices were taken from Mumismedia FMV online.
Set like that would look great in a Dansco or Whitman.

Franklins can also be snagged for under $50/coin in reasonably nice grades.
I've set a goal for myself this year of buying a certain amount of bullion per week, so I like your plan. I hope you (and I can keep up with it).

Torn,
I think setting a $50 limit is a fun idea. This gives you some time to research whether you are looking to purchase silver or a semi-key date to fill a hole.
I hope whatever you decide, it makes you happy.
Keep us posted.

I am trying to do the same thing. Every payday I buy myself 1 Morgan dollar in the under $50 range. Helps build the collection, and, lets me not over step my budget! |

Ok. Made my first purchase using my new method this weekend. I got a 1922 Peace dollar - $26.00 and a 1934D Washington quarter that I would grade about a EF40 - $20.00 Total = $46 Found them at a coin shop in Bowling Green Kentucky while traveling this weekend. I think I did really well on these two coins. |

Sounds like a good solid purchase. 26 for a Peace dollar is really good! |

I have to ask what condition is the Peace dollar and did you stop at the Corvette museum?  |

Peace dollar was in their junk pile. With silver spot at $31-ish, that makes a silver dollar about $24.50. I've been to the 'vette museum before and would recommend it to everyone.

Always mark the 2x2/holder with the price you paid. It's a good way to keep track.
