Giwalsh Valued Member United States 254 Posts	Posted 01/12/2019 7:27 pm started collecting in febuary 2016,concentrating on cents and due to very generous in-laws who gave me the 09svdb for christmas for helping them remodel their bathroom and my 22 plain from ebay coming Monday and 3 years of crh like a madman,I have a complete set.I bought 6 coins,given one and found the rest. My mother in law asked me if I was done collecting because the set is complete,after I stopped laughing I said ill just move on to dimes. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 01/12/2019 7:46 pm That is an amazing accomplishment @giwalsh! Of course, when you say: Quote: I said ill just move on to dimes. I must wonder what about Indian Head cents?

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5770 Posts	Posted 01/12/2019 9:07 pm Very well done. Not an easy feat even for collectors doing this all their lives. (Hang onto those in-laws, they sound like keepers.) Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff

howell1018 Pillar of the Community United States 717 Posts	Posted 01/12/2019 11:17 pm I'm amazed you were able to pull an almost complete set via roll hunting. I don't go through rolls, but I had a 5 gallon water bottle filled with change and I went through that not too long ago and might have pulled 25 wheat cents out of all those coins. Most were from the 50's. I'm wondering which dates were the ones you bought. Report this Post to the Staff
Giwalsh Valued Member United States 254 Posts	Posted 01/13/2019 12:14 am I bought a box a day and usually 3 on the weekends for the first 2 years and now am down to a couple boxes a week,I try to only buy customer rolled rolls.while taking pictures I realized I should have said I only bought 6 for the first book,09s,11s,12s,14d,31s and I think 24d,I had to buy all the s proofs from 75 on and although I looked at thousands of 70s I had to buy the 70s small.
