I do have many FULL Albums but not sure I have completed sets of anything.
Same here.

A complete set is whatever makes you happy. I have seven completed albums, so I am happy.

2.Kennady
3.Ikes
4.Roosevelts
5.Peace Dollars
6.Sacagawea. Dollars
7.Pres. Dollars(date set)
8.State Quarters
9.ATB Quarters
10.Silver Eagles(date set)
11.Susan B. Anthony Dollars
12.Buffalo Nickels
13.Jefferson Nickels
14.Lincoln Memorial-Shield set

I know..I know..I'm listing everything for the crooks to see but it's not here so if they want to break in for a State Quarter set I'll give it to them.

Complete sets that I have sold/traded to update my Barbers:

Franklin halves
Kept the 1951 as my birth year.

Washington quarters
Never got a '32-S Kept the '32-D.

Roosevelt dimes
Gone

Mercury dimes
Not one but two sets - No double dates.
Gone, as not really special.

Buffalo nickels
Complete Set sold. Had an extra 1913-s Type II which I kept.

Lincoln Wheat Cents
Complete but no 1922 and 1955 oddities.
Sold

Without an heir I must think of my sister who will be charged with selling them.
Less is more.
If a single coin is worth more than a complete collection I sold the collection.
And I sleep, when I DO sleep, without regret.

I took these with my android a year ago before I knew how to use the focus. The coin isn't green, it's a nice chocolate brown. The next time I open the deposit box I'll try to take some better pictures so people can try to identify the Snow variety.

I like many before on here collect many albums. I started out buying the cheap cardboard flip albums at my local Barnes and Nobel, Hobby Lobby, and Books a Million. That was about 2 years ago when I started collecting. Now I currently have 3 Dansco Albums. My main focus is filling those 3 Albums which are:

American Silver Eagle 1986-Present... I am 8 Coins short
Morgan dollar Date Album......I am 3 coins away from completing that album
Kennedy half dollars 1964-2017... I am missing 16 coins...

I do have 2 albums complete of 50 State Quarters, with about about another 5-8 albums of random collections like Penny, Dime, and nickles, but those top 3 are my focus now.
