Looking good! I'm so jealous! I wish my War Nickels looked that good! Also, bravo for getting a Liberty nickel album! I love my Liberty nickels and feel they are very underrated. 40 dollars honestly isn't too bad. It's one of the few collections I don't regret spending the money towards. The expensive key dates though.... meh. I still haven't replaced my 1885 and I probably won't. I'm tired of spending hundreds of dollars on a singular coin. There are still a few that I've been meaning to upgrade honestly. But yeah, looking good! Nice to see the love for nickels. Outside of Lincoln cents, they are still my favorite coins personally.

Thanks all. Humanist, I have the Liberty's in a blank nickel page but never got around to labeling them. I knew not having a dedicated album was going to bother me so I just splurged for it. Not sure when I'll ever get around to getting the more expensive key dates but at least I'll have the album ready for them. I like the Jefferson's in the fact that there are no crazy expensive ones even in BU.

Oh yes! I mean, obviously, there are expensive Jefferson nickels out there that you an purchase. I.E., some of the matte or satin finish coins from 94 or 97, and the majority of the pre-1950's proofs. I am actually considering upgrading the majority of my coins from my main set over to BU over time, and then working on my bank roll set, aka, the 7113. Luckily, these aren't really necessary for building a set and I personally wouldn't purchase them as I don't have that kind of cash. They will go for 100+ dollars quite often, or close to that. I think, so far, the earliest Jefferson proof I have is 1956.

I have the 55-64 proofs already and luckily I have the graded 94 and 97 matt ones already. Not sure if I'm going to go back further on the proofs mostly because of the price. I think I'm going to focus on filling the holes that are in the Dansco before I venture any further on the extras not contained in the book. I still need the 65-67 SMS but I'll probably just get the whole sets so I can cover all the denominations for my other albums. It's usually cheaper in the long run vs buying them individually.
