What's next?


Immediately, I will be working on finishing the silver proof version of this and getting coins to fill those blank holes. Of course, I will also be working on Jefferson nickels (upgrades, proofs, some slabs).

You gonna extend this collection back to 1932 now?


Not currently but, that would be much more of an achievement!

Rest in Peace

A really beautiful set. Congratulations on completing a historically important set in proof, no less. A collection that I'm sure you will enjoy every time you see it.

I have absolutely no interest in the madness the mint has undertaken to change the quarter design every time there is a new phase of the moon.

I...ooh..Dansco album makes these look nice!

I hate...Hmm...those designs really stand out when side by side...

And...I won't...wow! The proofs in the lineup make it shine...

I would never...

I...

I wonder if my LCS has a Dansco Statehood Quarter album with proofs?



Very nice looking set, and congrats on filling the album

I considered the suggestions and decided to put a bicentennial proof and a '98 proof in the blank holes. It makes sense being the previous two different reverses. I also did the same in the corresponding silver proof album.

A-Modest-Achievement...

It looks much better now without the open holes. C'est fini!

Great looking set!! I love the way they 'shine' in that album. I have the P&D set completed of the states but looking at these proofs has me thinking.

You really had me going with that first paragraph. Well said.
