Low Ball Type Set 1792-1964

to the forum Billn! Any way you can show and tell, be interested to see how you're doing it. My "Expanded" 7070 set is a lower-ball (grade) set on the older 18th century because for most part is all I can afford on limited income! I'd NEVER be fortunate enough to come close to what some CCF members are able to assemble. BTW, call it "expanded", since adding adding additional examples of the changes within coin sets of the 20th & 21st Centuries (Clear and filed "S" & Wide rim on SBA's) and a couple very neat nickel sets.

This is the best I can do without taking individual pixs. Last pix is of P01 Draped Bust Large Cent collection 1796-1807. Though, comments...etc!

I can well appreciate the challenge, but this really doesn't do it for me.

Certainly isn't for everyone coinfrog.

Thanks CrazybO, I'd love to see yours!

Hey, no disrespect intended. I'm an old guy and this basically goes against my instincts as a collector, and so I'm just saying so.

I'm trying to think of one other collecting field of any kind where owning the worst example would be considered a success.

Don't run off Bill! This is a great community. Let me apologize for my fellow members. You're catching us on a holiday weekend when most are out of town. I think it's cool what you're doing. I have a lot of lowball coins and I find those more interesting than my higher grade sets. Don't be so easily discourage by old farts like CoinFrog. (still love you though,Frog). You will encounter snobs on every coin forum you visit.

CCf has a great membership base with many, many active users. My first post here was about an 1893 CC silver dollar I owned since I was a kid. Most called it a fake but a few coached me on how to prove otherwise. Guess what? It was real.

Relax, stick around, and we look forward to your participation. You'll learn a lot here from honest opinions. Opinions being the key word. Sometimes folks need to learn when to plant their foot into their own mouths.

to CCF!
