I have completed a 1850 to 2015 coin type set collection and am working on another. Are Silver Commemoratives included in a type set, such as the 50 cent 1918 Lincoln or the 1925 Stone Mountain? Trying to find more than a few of these in an XF or better condition is an expensive proposition. Is anyone including these in their type set? Any thoughts on the subject?

It's up to the collector but the most common method is to have just one commemorative. Many collectors have one example of the following:

Silver Commemorative Half Dollar
Modern Silver Commemorative Dollar (post 1980)
Modern Silver Commemorative Half Dollar (post 1980)
Silver Bullion Dollar

Of course nothing is engraved in stone so it is still up to your taste
