Guide to US Coins

A U.S. type coin set offers collectors an opportunity to show their individuality. Ultimately, this set should be fun and rewarding to build. But what exactly is a type set? This set should contain one coin of every major design and metallic composition within a series. It is arranged by denomination design, in order of issue. For instance, the Lincoln cent has four major design types: the Wheat Ears, Memorial, and Union Shield reverses, as well as the four 2009 anniversary designs. Plus, the series saw a significant metal change in 1943 to steel. Depending on the depth and variety a collector wants to include, each type set can vary quite a bit, so the 1909 V.D.B. could be included as well as the coins without the initials. This booklet will give you helpful information every collector needs. But beyond a few basics, type coin collecting is almost limitless in its variety. As your knowledge increases, you’ll find your own favorite coins and ways to build a collection as unique as your imagination
