Continuing through the coins from loonielewy: some of the pics aren't as good as I would like but they'll do. I really like the coat of arms reverse on these. If I were to pick a series to complete, this may be it.

Go ahead and stir the pot mister. . Sprue knows I'm 1 coin away to fill my set from 37 forward. Anyone have an extra 82 SB? .

Just curious what is considered a full set?
By my count there are 92 50c circulation coins issued from 1937 to 2020, though from 2004 they are not truly "circulation". That does not include spacing and polishing varieties.
If you count PL, SP, and Proof, that's another ~130.

. mice45.

I used to wonder the same thing, but now, I think the answer to that question lies with the collector. 1 coin from each date may be all he/she wants. Then they consider it full. Some people want every single 1 of them. God bless their hearts. Too much for me. So "I" consider my set complete with 37 forward, with a coin from each date, with some varieties, not many, but the common ones, some are TPG, some are scuzzy, but that is my set, because that is what I set as my goal.

I don't know if anyone else collects like I do. I collect by birth years. I got the sets back to my birthday, then went on to go back to my fathers birthday, which also covered Mom. Still working on it.

When I finish "my" 50 cent piece set, you bet it's going up here. . Hope I helped.

mcshilling, I sent you a PM. .

Fifty cent coins are my favorite too.
I collect like you do, one of each year with a few varieties on the side.
I look forward to seeing your complete set.
Cheers
