wheatguy Pillar of the Community United States 1534 Posts	Posted 11/07/2009 9:34 pm I've been considering considering a commemorative type set, like the one shown here: http://www.vernoncoincenter.com/sto...idcategory=0 So has anyone here attempted this or something like it? Although difficult, I'll probably have a fun time filling it in. I'll probably have to wait a little though, I'm already working on a Mercury dime and SLQ set.

Also, there is a similar set for "modern" commemoratives which you may wish to consider. Report this Post to the Staff
Buzzard Valued Member United States 156 Posts	Posted 11/08/2009 1:07 pm I have been working on a classic commemorative set for the past two years. At my current rate, it will take me another eight years to complete. I recommend "A Guide Book of United States Commemorative Coins" by Q. David Bowers for anyone looking for advice on buying coins in this series. Report this Post to the Staff

And thanks Buzzard, I'll check out the book. I'm drawing closer and closer to starting one..... Report this Post to the Staff
dollarcoins Valued Member United States 220 Posts	Posted 11/21/2009 4:15 pm I am starting a modern commemorative set now. I enjoy learning the story behind these events and people. I do have a classic commemorative coin - 1936-S Oregon. It's so beautiful. Report this Post to the Staff
