Not much need to improve. That is really nice as is.

I love the Capital holders. They're very classy.
I used to lust after the Beymer type sets in the adds when I was a kid. The thought of having a real Bust Dime seemed ultra-exotic.
I think that's a super set, and it looks great!

Very nice set!  The Capped Bust is the only one that may need to be updated, but I feel like it has a story that would change my mind.

Yes. That Capped Bust Dime was loved by someone when Andrew Jackson was President.
Loved from day one.

Like Buckeye said, this one was WELL cared for from day one. Probably holed and put on a string so as not to lose it.

I really like the set. The holed Bust looks great to me and adds character to the set.
