I remain fired-up about these coins ..... and am pleased to report that I now own 8 of them ..... results of a local coin show and 2 e-bay purchases.

I'm trying to convince myself to go for the entire 50 coin silver type set ...... cost is a major factor ..... especially in clean MS grades.

I wish there were more activity on this sub-forum ..... I have a lot of learning to do and will be asking questions and posting photos as I go along.

For now ....... my coins have been submitted to PCGS ..... I believe they all are MS64+ .... and will report back when they come home.

Did I miss something, I am not sure what coins you are talking about?

I like modern commemorative coins and some of the classic half dollars.

You might be able to save yourself some money by looking for AU55/58 examples for some of the pricier commems. It is definitely a challenging set, especially Hawaii and Spanish Trail, but it is a unique set that you do not see many collectors completing.
