Freedom Pillar of the Community United States 526 Posts	Posted 09/26/2011 12:13 pm Have been updating as time and money are available. I am curious to hear everyones thoughts. I know that there are a couple borderline "Slicks" in the collection but eventually my goal is to have all coins at least XF or better. Thanks, Report this Post to the Staff

nod2003 Pillar of the Community United States 3294 Posts	Posted 09/26/2011 1:03 pm Very nice. Any plans for the empty spaces at the end? I am working on Barber halves as well (off and on) and am planning to do a mini half typeset with Seated halves and walkers and such. Report this Post to the Staff
KenKat Pillar of the Community United States 4085 Posts	Posted 09/26/2011 1:18 pm Great looking set! I am not all that familiar with the series - what are the key date coins and/or coins you found more difficult to obtain? How long did it take you to complete?

muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7194 Posts	Posted 09/26/2011 1:19 pm Another full set, congratulations. Barber halves seem to be well used or uncirculated, it would be a lofty goal for xf or better. Good luck on your upgrading, my focus has been on Walking Liberty halves as I prefer the look of the series. Report this Post to the Staff

The 1896-S is the semi-Key date and cost more than the Keys... Took about 12 months to complete and have updated several. Report this Post to the Staff

I busted them out of the slab and stuck the information in the back of the book. There are several in this set that I did that to. Report this Post to the Staff
