Oooh shiny!

The luster is blinding

Makes me wish I had been around to see bank rolls of BU Mercs back in the day.

Set is gorgeous, and I really love the look of those Capital holders. I've always wondered, though; is rattling and/or rotation an issue with these since there's no membrane between the coin and the rigid plastic?

I have this set sitting in my home proudly on display. The problem is no one I live with or who visits me seems to care. Thank goodness for the CCF!

I feel you.
And congrats!

All held perfectly in place. I suggest a nice pair of cotton gloves and ease them on in there so the rims stay intact. No rattling, no rotation.

I love this cap plastic holders.

Fantastic set. Reallllly nice. How many have full bands? Did you check the 45 for FSB's. And if you ever think of giving that to someone that loves Mercury dimes, think of me.
I'm presently working on a full set of all FSB Mercury dimes. Only 4 more to go.

Thaks for recognizing the luster everyone. It's really a labor of love to hunt them, afford them, wait to afford the next one etc... You all make me feel really great about that effort.
