Thanks for the encouragement!
I have not added anything new yet. I decided that I want my next coin to be something good (i.e. more expensive), so it is going to take a few months to save up the funds. I was thinking perhaps a pre-1834 gold coin. I haven't decided exactly what I want, but it will probably depend on what comes up for auction and when.

Loving the Type Set so far! Especially the 1872 Half Dime, what a looker, and the Walker has some gorgeous color coming in, as does the Morgan, I assume you will upgrade the Morgan eventually to a higher grade, based on your other coins in the set.

Fantastic start and welcome to the Forum. May I suggest to start keeping your eye out for a problem free Classic Head Large Cent. If you're going for XF and above (or even VF) on the early Coppers you may find the Classic Head a stumbling block. I'm speaking from experience here!  |

Update: I added 4 new coins. Purchased 2 from ebay last month, and 2 at the Baltimore coin show this weekend, and submitted all 4 to PCGS for TrueView pictures. I should get them back in about a month and will post the pictures then. Here is what I added: 1833 Classic Head Half Cent PCGS AU55 1900 Barber quarter PCGS AU58 (gold album toning around the edges) 1958 Washington quarter PCGS MS66 (blue & violet mint set toning) 1872 Seated Liberty dollar PCGS AU50 (blast white) |

I'm just  over the two Half Dimes and the 1837 Capped Bust half. A very nice start to your type set which you will be sure to enjoy for years. Ed ANA LM-3175 |
