I'm sure that you had a lot of fun chasing down just the right one for each slot in the Texas outline.

Awesome set, specksynder! It's the holder that really stands out, and I bet if Capital Plastics had anything to do with it in the early 60's, the holder was a custom item and cost more than all 13 unc coins put together at the time. Oooh it's giving me ideas for my absolute favorite US coin design, the Oregon Trail Memorial and I can see a shaped custom holder for the 14-coin set. I have 11, just missing the pricy '39 set... But would be awesome on such a holder!

Thank you for sharing, it's quite an achievement to wait patiently for the right coins to come along, and quite an attractive set to boot! Hope you enjoy it for many, many years to come.

Bizybackson -- I agree, the holder is awesome (yes, I allow Capital Plastics to tell me what to collect). They also make/made a Nevada shaped holder for all the CC Morgans. I have seen one of those completed at the Local Coin Shop once. Oregon is a great idea.
