Complete! This was a fun set I started this past February. Here is the original post. https://goccf.com/t/80643I started this set with the intentions of just putting some more silver away. I traded a few coins last week and finished up the Peace dollars. Ends up there are 44 90% silver dollars and 5 40% silver dollars. Most of these I paid around melt price, with a few a little over. The four that cost the most are 1893, 1895 O, 1978 CC and the 1921 Peace dollar. All others I paid low $40's or less. If I come across some good deals I may upgrade some of them. And next time I order some Dansco albums I want to get a blank Sacagawea page for this book to continue one for each year. Here is what I have put together.

This Set not only looks nice, it's relatively easy to complete. I could fill the Ike and SBA page with circulation finds. (yes, I found a '73-D Ike in circulation long ago, and I've received two 1981 SBA's in my Light Rail ticket change)

Congrats on the set, beautiful coins... While silver has been up so high, it has been a good bit easier to get better quality coins... That is quite an accomplishment

Thank you all for the nice replies. I really like this set, partly because it has put me on a different path with Morgan dollars. There is so much to learn about these coins, and there are a lot of them available. The past couple years, that I have been on this forum, and sets like this has changed the way I have collected coins. I know I still like to just fill the empty holes. Of course I still have a budget, but I am trying to find the better coins. I hope to update at least 8 of the Morgans and many of the Peace dollars. Just will take my time and find them at a good price .. if possible

Congratulations on completing your set, it looks great! I still have eleven holes to fill in my Morgan dollar date set. I haven't decided if I am going to do a Peace dollar date set just yet. I am also currently assembling a 19th Century type set in the Capital Plastics holder #460A so it's going to be a while before I complete the Morgan set. ANA LM-3175
