hfjacinto, I know this was a while back.... But seeing your collection was amazing! I love it!

Anything new at all?


Thank you

I updated a few coins, like the 1913, 1914, 1921. I also added labels to the Memorial cents, but I did that a few weeks ago so no pictures of that. Here is the updated primary set.

I also moved all the coins I had in the Whitman Folders to a Dansco.

Amazing stuff, my friend! Honestly, as strange as it sounds to say this, looking at all these Lincoln cents makes my mouth water! Lol.

It just reminds me of how much I like the Lincoln cents as a series with so many coins in it.
I also see it looks like you have both a 1909-2009 album, and separate albums for both Wheat cents and Memorial cents, if I am correct?
I sort of want to do something like that possibly, too, but with Memorial cent proofs.

Great stuff, though!

Thanks, I feel the same, the history those coins lived thru.

I do, I used to have this:
A-Collection-I-Started-45-Years-Was-Finally-Completed!

Over time I consolidated the above into the 3 Dansco's above. I ended up giving away many of the duplicates. I pretty much stopped with the Lincoln Cents now. I may upgrade a few IHC eventually but I have coins missing from the Morgan dollar date set so that is more important.

I think you gave some to me actually if I recall. I mean, I get it. Besides like errors and things like that, you basically have the full sets, which not everyone is into. I'm not personally. Not much else to do after that to me personally! I can see how that took you 45 years, though! I love it.

I think if I recall, you have a pretty awesome Buffalo nickel collection as well, right?

I don't know if I would call it "pretty awesome", I did the majority (50/60%) of the coins from my dealers dated bison nickels, I paid 75 cents each for the majority. I was happy to finish it, but I'm not overly happy with my 1913 S V2. Its hard to see the date. I may eventually upgrade that one. Here is the album.

Looks pretty nice to me!


Thanks JBuck, the bison nickels are weird in that the set didn't cost a lot but I have no real interest to upgrade (other than 1 coin). I do agree that it looks good as all the coins are a comparable grade.

They are as good if not better than the ones in my set. You also have the advantage of labeled holes since I used blank pages.
