Thank you all for the positive comments.

if you don't mind me asking what did it cost to complete the gold page and what are the condition of the coins


Stylez - I started the gold page in Dec 2011 and finished Dec 2012. I think I have about $6500 into it.

I would say the grades run from XF to MS63. (I broke the
$10 Indian out of a PCGS MS63 holder)

Gold was higher at that time, so it might be a little cheaper now.

Nice set. I've always wondered why the 7070 doesn't include the type 2 gold dollar and the $3 gold piece? Seems they could have squeezed those in?

Members have mentioned what Dansco might .. Or should put into a updated album.

My idea/suggestions would be

Large size bust quarter
No stars Seated dime
All four westward journey nickels
All four Lincoln 2009 cents
One Territory quarter
One ATB Quarter
1/10 oz gold eagle
1/10 oz platinum eagle
Modern commemorative $5.00 gold

In addition to your list, I would like them to add:

Shield Cent
New Obverse Jefferson nickel (maybe)
Bust Dollar
Presidential dollar
Gold $1 type 2
Gold $3

No wonder they can't get this thing done. Every time they think they have it the mint produces a new coin (new penny reverse, nickel obverse, ATB Quarter, Pres. dollar, Kennedy halve in 2014,...).

The gold page would need the Buffalo $50 coin too.
