I was just wondering what coins set have you completed either at one time or another or currently own. I know some will not want to answer this for security reasons but if you fell safe to do it think it would be great to see some of our accomplishments. So what coin set have you completed. you may also include the sets that you are missing maybe one or two key dates. OK I will start. 1st. Mercury dime first set I ever finished. I should say almost I am missing the 1916-D but I still feel very proud of this set so wanted to add it. 2nd. BU American Silver eagle set. 3rd. 4 State Quarter D mint up to SD 4th. 1 State Quarter P mint set 5th. Don't know if I can count it but Silver Kiwi Bullion set sure there is only 3 so far but it is complete up to date. I am in the middle of about 4-5 others that are just a few away.

I have completed the 1878 7Tf B1 Reverse Morgan set even though it is a very small set it still took some time to find a few of the coins

Aussie 5 cent piece set (1966-2006) nearly complete, I need 1972 (low mintage) and 1985 and 1986 (mint sets only). This is the closest I have to a complete set. Steve

Washington quarters 1932 to 1998 mostly unc. (have sold) Kennedy halves 1964 to present...All unc. and proof Sacagawea dollars...all unc. and proof...2 sets (1 sold) Morgan dollars....80% unc. all dollars except the 1895P (sold) started over! Big mistake! Peace dollars...80% unc. (sold) have started another set. Buffalo nickels...working on 3rd and 4th sets (many unc.) Liberty (V) Nickels in circulated condition with some unc. (Sold recently) U.S. Silver Eagles...numerous sets...sold a few but still have 4 sets in the house and numerous singles. Statehood Quarters...numerous sets in unc. Franklin half dollars...two sets in unc. and proof...(sold one) U.S. Type sets....Completed two sets (sold) European Union (Euros) two sets still here...all in unc. German silver euro commemoratives...complete set since 2002 And for what it is worth I am still working the Buffalo nickels, Standing Liberty quarters, Shield nickels, Kennedy halves, Canadian Type Set (older), Australian Mob of Roos and Australian Silver Kangaroos. Also numerous silver euro coins when I can acquire them. Also working Euro $2 circulating commemoratives in unc. And, I have a full set of Canadian 1/2 ounce silver wolves!!! (only takes one to make this set) I wonder if they will make an album? I am sure there is more but this is what readily comes to mind! None the less I have had a ball in my lifetime and will continue to enjoy the hunt!

Completed Kennedy-P&D - 1964 thru 2006 - no proofs Franklin-PD&S - 1948 thru 1963 - no proofs Liberty Walking-PD&S - 1916 thru 1947 - no proofs Sacagawea-PD&S - 2000 thru 2006 - proofs Eisenhower-PD&S - 1971 thru 1978 - proofs ASE- Uncirculated - 1986 thru 2006 Close Barber Half-PD&S - missingt 8 Morgans-PDS&CC - missing 14 Peace-PD&S - missing 1 SBA-PD&S - missing the 3 varieties ASE Proofs - missing 5 Indian Head Cents- missing 5 I've several others I'm working on, but they're not far enough along for me to worry about completion yet. And, as far as worrying about security - except for the newer issues, all my coins are in well-circulated condition, and I doubt they'd hold much value to anyone else, but mI love 'em. Ralph

I am just one coin away to finish Russian silver coins era of Pavel I (1797-1801) which is just 5 denominations, 5, 10, 25, 50 kopeks and 1 ruble but trust me, they are amazingly difficult to find even in damaged conditions.

I have a complete set of capped bust half dollar dimes in VF. Also have all the Two Cent Pieces except the 1872. And, I am about 9 coins shy of completing my first set, which is lincoln wheat S mints, all in Au / MS. Nice topic by the way! No one at home wants to hear about my collection :(

I recently completed my first set of silver coins -- Franklin half dollars in circulated condition (actually, 6 or so Uncs). I had a thread in the trading section asking for help with my circulated Washington quarter set. I have finished it except for the two keys (thanks for the trades  ).

A Morgan date and mm set. Minus the 1895 of course. A Peace date and mm set. A type set. Still upgrading this one. ASE set. State Quarters....... That's all I can think of right now.

What are you missing? Rare ones? I won't complete my set until I assassinate everyone who's out there identifying new VAM's. They're finding them faster than I can collect them.
