Here is the Dansco VACookey and I have been filling from circulation. Mostly from CRH, but a few from 7-11 finds and the like.

I don't know that we will ever finish it. We haven't found a Frankie CRH in quite a while. I do have the ones my father found CRH back in the 70's. I have been contemplating going through them and seeing if there are any to fill the holes in the album. It would be a bit like collecting with him even though he isn't here anymore.

I have given up trying to keep him straight. He shifts every time I move the book around. He must think he is in the Brady Bunch cube.

How about this one? Since there are NO PF-70s, I guess this PF-69 star has to do. Thanks for looking.

Wow, these Franklin's are just excellent, very enjoyable to look at. The thing I like the most about them is that they just LOOK like they're silver...what I mean is, you can tell just looking at them that they are silver coins and they are beautiful. Outstanding.

Wheatchaser140 You have 4 more than I do....Rome wasn't built in a day as they say.

Seeing all of the beautiful Franklins in this thread got me to dig out my set. Back in the late 70's I started to assemble a set of BU Franklins in a Whitman album. I got about two thirds done before life came in the way. When I got bitten by the bug again about 8 years ago, this was the first set I worked on completing. I do have a complete set but a couple probably could be considered sliders. There are no proofs in my album but it is pretty nice anyway. I will try to take some pictures and post them here (I am photographically challenged). I love all of the pictures, especially the proofs!
