About This Set:
The McCullagh Collection is named in honor of my wife, Anne Catherine McCullagh, born in Dublin, Ireland. She has been the inspiration for building this high quality MPL Registry Set. This could not have been accomplished without the dedication and support of our Numismatist, Brian Wagner (BWRC). In addition, have to thank Laura Sperber, Legend Numismatics, for her help in acquiring the 1909 VDB and 1915, cornerstones to the collection. A special thanks also goes out to Matt Chapman, who was directly or indirectly involved in acquiring FIVE of the other coins in this collection. As I told Matt, a strong argument could be made to call this the Chapman/McCullagh Collection. Thanks Matt! Finally, would like to thank Todd Pollock, BluCC Photos for creating the templates and providing the imaging on several of the coins. On March 04, 2010 the highest-graded 1909 V.D.B. Matte Proof Lincoln cent was purchased as a centerpiece for this collection. This has been recorded as the highest price ever paid for a regular-issue business strike or proof small cent, including Lincoln, Flying Eagle and Indian. I hope you enjoy this set as much as we do. Jonathan

Jonathan, I will both shed a tear and smile every time I look at this set. Many good folks, myself included, really put their all into assembling these coins. I think visitation rights are in order.
Johnathan, you now have the finest toned set in this MPL Set Registry and you may certainly feel very proud and happy to be right up there with the current leaders. Again, congratulations and keep on upgrading.
Who would have thought in 2008 that you would have gone in this direction, AND went all the way to the top in such a short time. Way to go, Anne and Jonathan!
Very happy to see the 1910 66RB in your set. If not for my BN love affair, it would still be eye candy in my set. Love your set!!
AWESOME
Jonathan, this set is on its way to becoming the finest MPL toned set in this Registry. Congratulations and good luck in completing it.
Very pretty set of Mattes!!!!
Yeah Jonathan! Way to go! The VDB is Godzilla! We are Japan!
Something tells me this set is going to leave a wake!!!
Always fun to watch a rocket blast off! Here it comes! 5...4...3...2...1...
Nice re-start Jonathan. Both 1909 and 1913 are great coins.
