Okay, so I had to purchase a few of them.. I was trying to get as many from circulation as possible, and I think I did pretty good. I'm so excited! I have been working on this for months. Has anyone else completed one of these or a similar set?

Here is my 20th century type set. Probably my favorite set, but still needs two upgrades.

Tough to see anything in that picture. Guess I need to take a new one.

Very cool! I'm not familiar with that (Whitman?) folder - I like the 'birth year' holes!
Now, darn you!, I have to get three and fill them for the kids!!

Both of these sets are very nice. I am sure that I have all of these coins, just not not in one place like this. An interesting idea...

Both are very nice sets. I've had one several years, but in 'Common' frame.

Igfindring; Were did you get your frame? I would like to get something similar.

Congrats on the set completed. Yes, I completed one.

The Whitman folder is a little outdated on what the 20th century type set should be now though, since the Lincoln Cent, Jefferson nickel, and Washington quarter had some design changes.

While I was busy with my 7070, the only coin I would need for the 20th Century would be the Barber Half.

Nice set(s)!

the 20th century ended in 2000, so those design changes will be on the 21st century set, if the world still exists in 2100 AD.

Nice set(s)!

The Barber half was my last one too! I broke down and finally bought one yesterday.

I guess I have one, as a subset of my 7070.

Oh, and the new quarter design is included here. Just the obverse, but it is represented.
