Awesome set. Have not been able to restart mine since they were stolen. Weird, I just get a bad feeling whenever I see one and its for sale etc. Same with Peace dollars. The mercs were a differant story. I just got mad and bought a near complete set. WOLF |

Congrats! I bet you are happy .. that is a nice looking set. I keep thinking about doing a Franklin set. I have picked up some in the past when I can get a good price ..but only have about 10, in BU. It is nice to get a set done .. I am getting close on some also. Jefferson BU/proof should be done this week. The last two are in the mail. Peace dollars I need one more (1921) 3 more for my type set. (one large cent, two Seated dollars) After this week .. I think I am going to focus on getting some more CBH's. |

Great job on completing the set!  I still need the 49 S, 52 S and 53 S to complete mine. I also need to upgrade a few as well. I have quite a few MS63 and would love for the whole set to be at least MS60 if possible. |

Great looking set and you should be proud. I like the consistency of the coins. Did you pick them individually?
Congrats!

A Franklin set is very easy to build when compared to many of the others. It was my second "complete" set, after the Eisenhower dollars. (The Jefferson nickels were my first completed "to-date" set.) |

Very nice, I love the Franklins and think they're under rated.
I started a circulated set, then though I should have some nice ones mixed in
and now won't buy anything unless it's BU. I'm not a good planer.
Anyway I have 6 to go, then I'll need to replace a bunch of circulated ones.

It's not like Morgans or SLQ's where there are some that even in Good are out of reach in price. The most expensive one was $70.00. I knew that I would be able to finish it. I took my time and it was alot of fun.  |
