The Washington quarters album from Dansco was also an 8 page album. and the Washington quarter album series is spread over 8 albums (at least for me - I custom made an extra one just for Satin strike quarters which I used the 7143 album for them) Other than that, my quarters carry through albums 8140, 8143, 8144, 8145, 8146, 8147, and then 8141 Collecting since 1972.

Humanist1287 Pillar of the Community United States 528 Posts	Posted 09/18/2025 07:23 am I was looking on ebay today and came across this... It was listed as the 70-S small date. However, I am unsure if it actually is. It's a pretty good price, though. Thoughts?

Humanist1287 Pillar of the Community United States 528 Posts	Posted 09/19/2025 05:23 am 30 dollars seems like a pretty good price to me. That said, I'm not too sure I like the way the coin looks in particular. I feel I could find one that looks better than this. If I'm gonna fork over some cash, I definitely want it to look good.

Humanist1287 Pillar of the Community United States 528 Posts	Posted 09/25/2025 05:27 am Yes! It does. I opted not to purchase it. I do, however, finally have some coins coming from ebay that I ordered yesterday. I purchased a 1913-S, 1919-D, 1924, 1927-S, and since I've needed it for a while to complete my steel cents, the 43-D. The 43-D is BU and the rest are somewhere between VG-XF I believe. Man, completing the first two pages has definitely proven to be a task within itself! The coins from 1910-1915, more specifically the S minted coins, aren't cheap in XF condition! I was able to find the 1913-S for under 20 dollars for one in pretty decent shape, but for me, once I start getting outside of that 10-20 dollar range.... That adds up pretty quickly! Oh well. I suppose it will be part of the journey, as I have opted to not jump on the first coins I come across and instead look around for the best priced ones in the best conditions I can find. BU is obviously out for basically all of the coins realistically on the first page, and I'd say probably the second one, too. The 1910-S was around 50 bucks from the ebay seller I've been following recently, and a VF condition one is 25. The XF condition 1913-S from them was also around that range as well, if not slightly under. So I was happy to find one that they were also selling for under 20, albeit not in XF obviously. These are shots of the 13-S from the listing. Not too bad. Obviously, could be better, but I'd prefer not to spend 50 bucks if I didn't have to!

Humanist1287 Pillar of the Community United States 528 Posts	Posted 10/02/2025 05:31 am Thank you! I received the coins yesterday! My first page is getting pretty full. I believe there are 9 empty slots in it now. I also received the 1913-S, which is so far the most expensive coin I have put into this album, around 16 dollars I believe. Pretty good IMO for a semi key date coin, though. I know, that doesn't sound like a lot and it's not. It is comparably however considering most of the coins that I have purchased have been 10 bucks or under that. Lol. The 1913-S. Looks a little darker under my camera. 1919-D 1924. Kind of annoyed by this... I spent 8 bucks on this. I could have gotten it in basically the same condition at my local coin store for 4 bucks. Ah well. my fault. 1926-D 1927-S 1943-D I finally have all the steel cents, and in BU condition I believe. Except for maybe the 43... I think it was sold to me in BU, though, so not sure.

Humanist1287 Pillar of the Community United States 528 Posts	Posted 10/02/2025 09:03 am Thank you, Dearborn. On an unrelated note, I also have some Buffalo nickels coming. I think I am going to start carefully looking into what I purchase, and compare between ebay and my coin store. This way I can find a better price that works with my budget. All the S mint mark coins from 1910-1915 seem to be semi key-ish dates. Is that even a word? Lol. I'll pay a little more if that means getting them in decent condition. I believe there are a few other semi key dates on the second page as well. From what I gathered, the 22-D, 24-D, and 26-S seem to be semi key dates possibly. The 33-D also seems to start climbing in price once you start looking at XF specimens.
