Great additions. I would have to tear the room apart looking for where that 80-S went.

I can almost guarantee it fell in between the sofa cushions.  |

My wife found it, of course.  It was, of course, on the floor, as I do all my coin type things generally at the kitchen table. Why is it women can find things that men can't? Lol. This coin isn't the prettiest sadly. But for 1.00 dollar, it'll do for now.  That's better   I also only have 20 proofs left to fill the S ports. That is, if you are not counting the 81-S type 2, which there is no port for. Then there is 21.  Edited by Humanist1287

Thank, you EV  I've given up trying to kind of keep them uniform in tone/color. I'm not gonna search all over for a specific one and I'll jump on one if it's a good deal. I'm pretty sure they also had more proofs, these are just the ones I came out with.  |

Thank you, CoinForMe jbuck, so when you have empty ports in your album, do you generally fill them with anything? Now, it's odd, Whitman's album has a port for the 81-type 2 proof, unlike Dansco. However, they also have ports for the 1955 double die and the 1972 double die. I didn't even know this was a thing honestly. I knew about the 55, but not the 1972. Their album also goes from 1909-1995. Then starts with a secondary album that has dated ports from 1996-2025 with a few slots leftover at the end. Interesting. |

I get it. So far, I don't really plan to "fill out" the majority of the empty spots in the back of the album.
I'm kind of over that. I don't need to have it filled out completely.
My Jefferson album basically only has the empty slots filled out due to having so many proofs that there are no ports for, since they didn't have any spots for them until 1971.
Have from 56-70 in proofs, so naturally, the empty spots at the end were good for that. But not going this kind of route with the Lincolns, at least not at the time being.
