Very nice. Having coins from your dad and grandfather make the set extra special.

I've got a type set also.
It's my absolute favorite.
In fact I just added to it yesterday; got another coin at the Baltimore Whitman show.

Very nice type set and album My US numismatic collection is mainly a type set, with many duplicates. I don't collect series by date. I've been slowly making a virtual 7070 album using photos, and discovered that I'm completely missing the Half Dime with arrows, along with some recent types. (I guess I never paid much attention dates with and without arrows.) |

I will always enjoy looking at others type sets, thank you for posting yours. It does look like a very nice set. I like the idea of having coins that were passed down to you included in the album.  |

That is a beautiful set; really nice! Only a few (challenging) holes left to fill. I will leave you with a quote:

Love that quote KenKat. I wouldn't do it any differently but it is a change for sure.

Beautiful set. That Peace dollar peeking through the half dollar page had me for a second. Wow, a new half dollar I never knew existed! Good luck on filling it out. |

Nice type set. I totally hear you!! I was actively collecting and it completely came to a stop with my first child. 7 years later I'm slowly getting back to it. And its not only having less disposable income before, I just didn't have the time for it either.

I just didn't have the time for it either. Definitely the case too. The house we bought was a foreclosure. Finally getting it to the point its where we want it but it has been a lot of work to get it right. I now know way more than I want to about plumbing, electrical wiring, septic systems, fencing, and landscaping... Got a good deal so can't complain.... too much... Between that, baby, and work time evaporated! |
