Tenko,

I don't think I've ever seen this set. Do you have a link?

One set I've been thinking of getting, is the Todd Lassen Morgan Dollar Hopping Half (though I guess it would be hopping Dollar) set. It's REALLY expensive ($250) but it looks so cool.

Demitri,

Keith Bennett does the Morgan set too. His mail flier does not mention a website address. The Morgan set is 137 UK pounds which is a lot cheaper than 250 US dollars.

Tenko,
Just a point of information:
How do you figure that 137 UK pounds is a lot cheaper than 250 U.S. dollars?

cheers,

As of 5 minutes ago the rate was £1 = $1.7125 for commercial transactions (as opposed to tourist rates) so $250 is now down to about £146.00!
