Wow, that is a nice set. I have a set started in BU but I am only five coins into it right now. That is a beautiful set you have there. Makes me jealous.

I agree with DM1975, they are very beautiful, and frankly, I just had to change my shirt due to the fact I drooled all over it.

Fantastic. Only two things wrong though
1. Would look much better at my house
2. Would look even better at my house.
And as a decent gesture of the necessity of a really good varification of that sets appearance, send it to me for a closer inspection.

I think that these are the most under valued half dollars available, and will just rise sharply in price in times to come. A good set like this will eventually command a huge premium in the next decade or two. I plan on putting together at least three sets of these myself.

THANKS EVERYONE!

sorry for the pics not being rotated.. I thought I fixed that...

like I said, if anyone could help me with the remaining 2 coins...

this set was probably the most inexpensive to build.. I think I averaged around $15-20 per coin, the most being $30-35...
