Mine is the Lincolns cents and I have nearly a full set.
Just need 1914D and 1931S.
Here's some pics...
(Nothing fancy, just circulated coins)

My favorite series is the Jefferson nickel. I've been working on a set of proof and unc for awhile now. I don't know if I will ever get them finished or not. Some are really hard to find.
-
I have a many Jeffersons as well. I have complete KM#192 set from 1938 to 1942, but many holes after that. :)
-
My favorite is the Walking Liberty Half Dollar. I have a lot of empty slots in my album. But I do have several of the key dates. I'm hoping to be able to afford the 1921-D within the next 6 months. And then it will be a lot easier to fill the rest of the holes. I imagine that it will still be a few years before my set is complete though.
-
My favorite would be the Seated Dollar.
My favorite that I can actually afford to
collect would be the Lincoln Cent.
When Abe Lincoln was in the Illinois House
of Representitives he was a member of the
Sangamon (county) Delegation which had
nine members. They were all at least six feet
tall and were nicknamed: "The Longnine." ;D

Longnine, thank you for that interesting piece of information.
Being six foot tall would have been unusual back then, so having
six of them together would have been very strange.

I had never heard that interesting bit of information either Longnine. Thanks for sharing. I finally know the meaning behind your name :)
