Congratulations on working on a very deep set. You have really done a remarkable job of finding nice examples of most of the dates.
Best of luck for you in your continued search. But I hope the FUN of building the set is as great as it can be.

Buffalo nickels. Type 1 is very hard to find, I found only 2 coins - the first one now mine, other was ms66 for 150$. Type 2 is very easy to buy, if you want to, it's possible to fill a bucket.

Some 1c. Coronet type a bit hard to buy, braided - very easy for fair prices. Flying eagle easy to buy, but prices are too high, so I have this one cheap as temporary untill I buy a nice one on ebay.

And now the real hard types. Liberty cap Half Dime is completely hard to find, I saw only 1 offer till last august, and bought it. Seated Liberty half dimes are very hard too, but there's a few offers with a very high price. These 3 I win on auction for ~10$ each. Demand for this coins is extremely low, so low the price.

And finally, two last coins. 2c piece is easy to find for a fair price. 25c is hard enough, now there's only 1 offer with a double of price. This 1876 quarter was in test mailing from US (USPS First Class Mail International, 1.15$ for shipping).

Minus one penny of my list. I write it down again and list become so compact since last time (this paper - my pocket list). Now it's time to make my wishlist topic. Also, today I received a message about mailing gift pennies from US. I will keep you in touch and will say how it goes.
