Ah yeah forgot a picture but no worries. I like how about 90% of these came from my CRH too makes it really feel like collecting :) and to make things a little interesting the darker ones are all ones with interesting colors on the coins so they aren't all the shiny silver color

Looking good! Especially since it is mostly circulation.

What album number is that one? Looks like what I'm after as far as coins to complete the album.

Dave (and side note, like the 5th or 6th person named Dave I have seen here... must be a collector name ;P), this is Dansco album 7166 Kennedy halves 1964- |

Thank you for the info. I had found a used Dansco Kennedy Album recently at a flea market that was priced at $10.00 but I have never saved or bought proofs other than the few I've found roll hunting. Like you I didn't care for the thought of all those empty holes and passed on that album.
I will keep my eyes open for this one though.

I think it's fair to mention that while Kennedy proofs and silver proofs are certainly more expensive than their P&D counterparts, they're still relatively affordable (especially with the price of silver these days for the Ag proofs). Certainly not an easy set to put together and could take a while but still a worthy goal!
Now if proofs just aren't your thing, fair enough, and I do think your set looks great, Mister Kairu.

A nice-looking set. The Kennedy half is such a nice coin compared to drab designs like the Ike and SBA dollars. |

That looks GREAT~!! I need to un wrap my Kennedy Dansco and start filling it up. I have most of the coins, just haven't opened the album to put them in. Perhaps seeing yours will inspire me  |

I love the proofs, it is just that having to get all the silver proofs is quite the task combined with keeping current on my ATB silver proofs and lunar series AND having a 7070 to fill. Perhaps someday I will return to get the proof versions but I felt I needed to downsize so I could focus more on a few things but also go back to my original intent of putting an album together of halves I find from doing my CRH. :) thanks for the comments! |

The Kennedy half PD set is a cool set to complete from rolls. I found most of the halves in my album (this same one) from rolls. I did buy a few though and it is complete to date. The book is mighty heavy though. I guess after 2017 I will have to get a new page, if they are still making Kennedy halves. I hope so. |

I have the old-style album with the proofs as well as PD issues. I kept it up until about 2007 when I started on the Registry bug. I have taken those about as far as I can, though, and you inspire me to go back and try to fill in some of those holes in Ye Olde Raw Set. They are certainly a lot cheaper to fill than the certified stuff, even if you do have to bust up some proof sets or mint sets in the process. Happy collecting!  Best Regards, George |
