I'm wondering how many people have gone a step further and put together a collection of at least several examples of the same key date, say a set of G-VG-F-VF-XF 1909-SVDBs?

Min. grade VF. That's what you call 'doing it the hard way'. Report this Post to the Staff

JJHFL Valued Member United States 395 Posts	Posted 06/08/2013 5:16 pm I have tried to limit myself to keeping no more than a set number of a certain date... It has not been going well :) I just can't seem to let certain dates go no matter the condition. My plan with most coins is to rotate the worst back out of the collection when I hit the set number and start ending up with "extra" lower grade coins... Just can't seem to let them go though :) Report this Post to the Staff
