I know this is more than a hobby

I see this all your point of views,and I have to disagree with alot of you.First let me make a clear understanding of what i meant by a (real set).Many sets are fairly easy to collect.peace dollars,ikes,susans,new presidents,statehoods,sacagua(however you spell her name)two and three cents..I am talking about those big sets:morgans,Saint gauduines, lincons, buffalos, jeffersons,franklins, Kennedy,mercury, and my favorite Roosevelt's.These collections are vast and long.Some ppl it takes them years to complete these sets.These sets are huge and difficult to obtain very rare ones and in extremely high grade .My heart goes out to all of you.If you have the #1 spot,you are the man..If you trying to get in the #1 spot of these collections,I wish you all the best of luck..Now to my second point...I can get a 100% complete collection.I can buy MS60's all day long.I have certain standards for my coins like most collectors. My collection must be from 67ft or better.The registry is for fun and competition.But anyone who is #1 in these sets will tell you,It takes more than just fun and low grade coins to get there..This is competition...Why should I have to buy low grade coins to get a 50 precent or better for my award.A collection with 100% complete means nothing if you have all low grade stuff.I have a wittman book that has all the mercurys and buffalos complete(the grades are good to unc).These coins mean nothing..Those ppl who are ranked #1 in mercurys and buffalos,ect they have a nice set..I dont care what their percentages are..They have a higher standards and commitment to the quality of their coins.I know my last statement may offend some ppl but it is the truth.I love my Ngc coins probally more than the Ngc company love their own company..I am not trying to upset anyone,but when you look for the best of the best it is hard finding those coins.I shouldn't have to settle for less to get my 50% for my award,neither should anyone else.To all who is ranked #1 or trying to get there.I wish you all the best of luck...Take care and enjoy your monster coins
