I have a almost complete set, just missing the 2 Type-2 Proofs, It was my first set I completed, and I consider it complete because the Type-2 Proofs are technically varieties so I don't know if I will ever get those or not.

Ah, one would think that is the obvious guess, but no.  There is no room in the Eisenhower dollar album for an extra page (it can only hold four pages). The album I put it in had the room.

Oh, I'm not familiar with which ones have room. Haven't tried to any pages yet to any of the few Dansco's I have.

SBA's were actually what I started collecting with, and I have a full set....including the medal from the 1982 Proof set. And I still love them. They're a great set to pursue.

I don't know if you would call me a collector or not but I have a few thousand dolars worth of SBA's in a safe deposit box that my grandfather used to buy the grand kids each year. he would buy a couple hundred dollars worth each year for each of us grand kids and when they got 18 he would buy them from them if they wanted and I was the only one who didn't cash mine in so he put all the ones he collected from my sister and cousins in my safe deposit box and told me I could have them

Bryan: That must pretty much fill a safety deposit box. Is that like 150 rolls?

Your first hint was all I needed. Hey, how did you know I have "7070" written on the ceiling?

 I meant to look up at Bryan's post, but I am sure you knew that.  It bothered me that my 7070 had some "room" in it.  I bought the album in 1993 and added the SBA page in 1996. I originally intended to collect the Type 2 and Near Date varieties (three coins) and spaced the coins I had accordingly. Then they came out with the three SBA coins in 1999. Since I still had not added the three varieties, I decided to rearrange the page and get the three (much easier to obtain) 1999 coins.

I have a complete set of the MS and Proof SBA dollars in a Dansco album including the type two 79-S and 81-S type II Proofs. I also have a Registry set of SBA's both MS and Proof that's a nice high end set.

I have never actually counted the rolls but its a large safe deposit box, well its deeper than the other one he had anyway. It is definitely allot of rolls though because my grandfather would buy about $200.00 each grand child each year so actually it may be a give or take on the amount but considering at least $800.00 a year worth and no telling if he bought some for himself in that time or not so you could imagine there are quite a few rolls in there. The other safe deposit box is the one he kept all his rarer coins in like his wire rim St Gaudens and stuff, now thats a slimmer longer box and in a different bank
