Looking good!  Since your coins are raw, I would suggest either CAPS or Dansco albums. For what it is worth, my first set is in a Dansco album. I completed it over twenty years ago and he is doing fine.  I am now building a second set that is slabbed. I keep them in a Lighthouse box. |

Nice set. I have a complete set including all 3 1972's, all proofs, all silver proofs and the Ike commemoratives.

That's a beautiful set you've put together so far, nice progress!  With the proofs I would say these Ikes warrant a Dansco, although from what I've seen of the CAPS albums here on the forum, that's another good option too. |

Although I am biased towards the Dansco, I am itching to see another set in CAPS. If you are curious... http://goccf.com/t/274055 |

Those Ikes look very lustrous. Here's a complete 32-coin set in a Capital Plastics holder that I finished a couple of years ago. It looks really nice, but it bugs me that a lot of the coins don't fit well in the holes, mainly the silver issues and proofs. I recommend a Dansco album.  Edited by Darth Morgan

I've done several Danscos in the past and they worked well. I really like Darth's capital display and Debrajc has been posting some killer CAPs albums. I lean towards the look of the CAPS since it gives a look of the Dansco and Capital mixed together.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions, and for CAPS link jbuck. Darth Morgan, your Capital case look awesome! For me, I think I will place them in Dansco album for now, since I will be making frequent upgrades. When I complete the set that I really want to display, I will transfer to Capital. I'm sure by then, I will have many extras for 2nd set in Dansco. Also, I do like CAPS album, but they take so much space. I already have about twenty 3-ring binders with couple thousand coins in 2x2. Will post pictures when I get all 32 coin set in Dansco.  |

Wow, wow, wow.
Gorgeous sets everyone and GREAT start, Coconutjoe!
My Ike set is in a Dansco, but I'm seriously considering a CAPS for a 2nd set!

I thought about CAPS for my second set, but then I found the Lighthouse box and decided to keep them in the slabs. Yeah, me, keeping slabs.  I might do CAPS for a third set. Who knows?  |

@jbuck - I think that is a fantastic idea. Especially for you! Three different ways to display Ikes that each has it's own merit. |

If and when I get to third set, it will probably be between CAPS and Capital Plastics. Right now CAPS is leading, but whenever I see Darth Morgan's set... Maybe I need four sets? |
