Interesting.

What time period do you consider to be Classical?

And by a "year set" do you mean all the years that a particular die design was used?
Ignoring varieties and mint marks?
Do you consider Indian Head and Flying Eagle cents as Classical?

For instance, the Liberty Cap, Head Facing Left Half Cent design was used only in one year.
If that fits your definition, then "yes", I have completed that set.

And depending on your definition of "Classical" then I may have others.
Describe it as if there were no picture.

The one and only "complete" set I have is Liberty V nickels, as every slot in the album is filled. As for the complete year set I unfortunately do not.. nor do I ever plan to get a 1913 V nickel
I've only been collecting for a couple years (2017). Favorite Coin's are Standing Liberty quarters, Working on my type set: "knowledge is power" -Thomas Jefferson | Coffee, Corvettes, Coins & the CCF what could be better?

I've completed Indian Head cents, V nickels [also minus the 1913!!], working on Barber halves at the moment. I also have a mostly finished set of large cents, missing 8 or 9, realistically, am not going to finish that one though.

currently I have flowing hair, draped bust, classic head and matron head large cents completed. I have had braided cents done in the past but I dont at the moment. years ago I had all of the Half Cents except for the 1796 and 1831. for bust half dimes I once owned everything between 1794 and 1837 except the 1802.
I collect low grade large cents. I currently have >230 Sheldon varieties and >235 middle date Newcomb varieties.

I have one Morgan dollar for every year of issue from 1878 to 1904 plus all three mintmarks for 1921. (I don't have the 2021 issue).

Indian Head cents and Buffalo nickels are both classic, and I have complete sets of both for year and mint.

Complete by date & MM: Walking Liberty half dollars, Liberty nickels

Complete by date only: Morgan dollars

My FE/Indian Head Cent Dansco is missing only a 1909-S to be complete. Lincoln Wheat Cents 1909-1958 is just missing 1909-S VDB (big surprise there) and 1922 No D/Weak D.

Morgan silver dollars - all dates
Indian cents - missing a nice 1871
Jefferson nickels - All to current
Roosevelt dimes - 1946 - 1964
Franklin halves - all dates

I haven't actively collected any "Modern" U.S. coins for quite some time. I was focused on the Morgans, Commemoratives, and many complete sets of bullion coins, (Domestic and Foreign) ASE's and ofcourse my Canadian Maple Leaf collection and more. I'm also into Large Cents right now. Oh, I have almost all dates of the Wheaties (courtesy of my Mom). She sold her 1909 S VDB but, that's all I need.

Am missing a few Walking Libs, Seated Libs, Barbers, Mercury's etc. etc. I have most but, there are small holes. I have a large number of those with many dup's. Just not my "thing" unless I see something that catches my eye.

I always, always go to my local dealer with my lists of what I have and what I need. Never leave home without it but, I still get side-tracked and pick up something else if I get excited about something different. That's how I got started on the Large Cents.
