At a coin show yesterday, I picked up a 1974-S silver proof Eisenhower, the last one I needed for a complete set. Now what'll I do?  Jan

Sell them and use the proceeds to collect something else.

If I did that I wouldn't be a collector any more, would I? But you made me smile, Dave.  Jan

"janknez" How many coins do you have in your set? I started working on a set if IKE's and I am going for a 34 coins set. This includes the following
1971 1971D 1971S SILVER 1971S SILVER PROOF 1972 EARTH VAR 1 1972 EARTH VAR 2 1972 EARTH VAR 3 1972D 1972S SILVER 1972S SILVER PROOF 1973 1973D 1973S PROOF 1973S SILVER 1973S SILVER PROOF 1974 1974D 1974S PROOF 1974S SILVER 1974S SILVER PROOF 1976 VAR 1 1976 VAR 2 1976D VAR 1 1976D VAR 2 1976S VAR 1 PROOF 1976S VAR 2 PROOF 1976S VAR 1 SILVER 1976S VAR 1 SILVER PROOF 1977 1977D 1977S PROOF 1978 1978D 1978S PROOF
Does anyone have any input on my set list, I'm a begginer so I really don't know that much and I am learning everyday, I figured this would be a good set to start on, Looks like I may have to expand my set list according to "littleboy". What do you guys think.
Thanks for they help and congrats to "janknez" on completing your set.

Congratulations on completing your Eisenhower dollar set!  This was the first set I completed, so it pleases me to know others are completing it. Enjoy it, don't sell it! Upgrade if you want, or just start working on another series.

Well, I admit I only have the bare 29 coins, no varieties. I guess that should be next. I frequently avoid varieties because most of the time, I can't tell the difference. Perhaps my growing collection of magnifying glasses will help. Thanks for all the advice, everybody.  Jan

If it's Ikes you need, it's Ikes I probably-might have.
