After having finished some time ago my lifelong endeavor of putting together (and upgrading over time) my various Type Sets (Dansco 7070 etc.), I started putting together a few different sets. I've shared with this forum some time ago my Two Cent set. I have now completed my Franklin Proof Set.

Congratulations
That's a great looking set! I love the cameos. I'm working on the set myself but with raw coins.

First, thank you Pmint1 and Greasy Fingers for your kind words.

The sale results of my #1 ranked America the Beautiful 5 oz. Bullion set were fantastic! I was fortunate that a collector read about my desire to sell the set, and he made a very fair offer for it. We agreed I would sell him 53 of the 56 coins, holding out the highest valued three coins. Those three went for sale on GC, and set records. From just those three, I netted over $6,000.

Steve,

Every set you do is dreamy and I can't stand the Ben Franklin 50 cent coin, but all your coins are WOW!

What more can I say that hasn't already been said . Franky is not exactly the handsome figure we would like to have on our coins ,but I guess with those proof grades and cameos we can call them '' Beauty & the Beast ''!
Way to go .

Thanks to Ty2020b, jacrispies, John1, TypsetCollector (who couldn't afford the extra letter "e" after the letter "p", lol), nickelsearcher, my good friend hfjacinto, Coinfrog, NumisEd, T-BOP, and jbuck - all for your very kind words.

Thanks, and a good weekend to all.

Steve

@Winesteven Good eye, your coin grading must be spot on. I didn't think anybody would notice my mistake. I must have been in a hurry when signing up. I'm trying to have it fixed, fingers crossed.

Have a good weekend
