It is why I put complete in scare quotes.


Yeah, I gathered. And by no means am I trying to insult anyone who does collect labels.

I've said it numerous times: while we are very social about collecting, collections themselves are intensely personal. Collect what makes YOU happy! Happy collecting, everyone.

thankful I am not obsessed with creating a "complete" ASE set.


Yep, same here - I collect ALL (one of each) proofs that are/were produced.
And I started new Dansco 7181 and 7182 albums for the "other" ASE's - I keep it simple - no mint mark = Bullion, don't care from where, and with a Mint Mark = Burnished or Uncirculated

I'm putting a "complete" set of ASEs together...howerver it is my definition of complete, which doesn't involve a grader's label.

Exactly (well at least for what I'm putting in my albums) If I happen to buy one that was slabbed with the (MM) I'll just crack it open place in in the album and the MM is not recorded anymore.

Understood that very well
