Well, I bit the bullet and ordered a P & D album: Innovation Dollars 2018 - 2025 P & D Mints Whitman Album #4788 I couldn't find an album that was for business strikes and proofs......at least that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Hope there will be a book 2 or whatever for the last 7 years.....anyway, it's about time I tried to make some sense of about 4 or 5 quarter albums in various stages of completion.

crusherjc; I agree with what coinnewcomer1said; would be a nice income maker. You two did a very wonderful job! I (at least) am delighted with the work. All you need now is to find a few million people who are interested in the AI dollars and you can quit your real job.

Thanks atticguy, I have thought about it. I had ordered custom pages from CAPS, but did not like how they came out, and the font size was different than what they used if you ordered a complete album. So I decided to see If I could design my own "page insert" I have done them for the A,T,H size pages and that covers most of my albums. I have done alot this way, as I can make the album up to the way I want to collect that series, and if I want to change anything, I can just print off a new page. I also like adding color to coins descriptions that are "rarer". Below is a ATB Quarter page I added red to the S and W mint state coins. It was a project to get the templates all set up, but I like how it turned out.

crusherjc; Your ATB page(s) look great too! It's too bad though that these went from FOUR coins/year to Five (when they added the 'circulated "S" coins'), to now SIX (with the "W" ATB's). It's nice though that you can alter the design yourself when needed. PS: Sorry for this non-AI Dollar post.

Semi-reluctantly picking up the proof sets of them. None from coin rolls or bags and not on the reverse proofs. Too much and too much money for what you get.

Collecting the proof and reverse proof sets. Picked up the RP 2018 Introductory Coin and the 2019 & 2020 RP Single Coins. USM still had the 2020 "singles" available on its web site for $11.50 each. I won't be purchasing the single RP coins going forward now that RP sets are available. It's an interesting series and affordable. I might not be around by the time it ends in 2032. . .

This weekend I finally moved all my proof and reverse proof coins to the recently purchased Dansco P&D (proof and different proof) album.

I "bought" the P&D Louisiana AI dollars today. Naturally, it will be some time before those two will be in my hands. Thankfully there are still some sellers out there who are happy with modest profits.

I'm one of those guys that buys 2 of all sets sold by the mint. One to crack open and put in Dansco albums and the other to stay in their boxes.
