Mister Kairu Pillar of the Community United States 1911 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 11:30 am When I had my type set, I had Columbian Exposition and Washington Carver halves for the classics (first and last) and the George Washington (first modern) and Statue of Liberty for the second modern.

RubyOpal Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 8:12 pm I have three commemoratives in my typeset now: 1892 Colombian, (empty space), 1982 Washington, and 1986 Liberty (clad). I want to get a 1936 Albany sestercentennial half for that last slot, being an upstate New Yorker. Report this Post to the Staff

TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 9:01 pm There are some that are more attractive in circulated grades that are affordable. They would fit right in there. I think you should look for some attractive coins that grab you at the right price. We all have apparently picked out our favorites but it's your set. Report this Post to the Staff

Some attractive circulated coins with close to the same consistency in color/tone/ware, "lack of luster", etc.. Rather then up and down conditions scattered throughout the page. For me, that would seem to give it most eye appeal. Report this Post to the Staff

For me, that would seem to give it most eye appeal. I suppose that means that classics would be the way to go, since they are more likely to have a similar appearance (and be affordable that way) as your Columbian Expo. I really need to start a 7070. Mine would be a budget version. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff
two_tonevf35 Pillar of the Community United States 719 Posts	Posted 02/27/2018 11:44 pm Once upon a time, in my 7070 I went for the 4 ship theme: Columbian, Huguenot, Pilgrim and Long island. There are others, but these were affordable and evenly matched in VF-XF. Report this Post to the Staff

Even though I have some nice ones in prestige sets, I don't want to break them apart. Yes compared to some of the guys here, my set is a budget version as well. Report this Post to the Staff
