Looks great! I'm just seeing this thread for the first time. I'm working on my 7070 too and we are roughly at the same stage, mostly filled but with several holes left to go. At first I thought your album looked really strange until I read it was from 1965. Mine is only a few years old and the biggest differences I notice are the coins are in reverse order in some places and that there are a couple holes I have that don't exist in yours. Specifically, the Ike dollar and slots for both Type 1 and Type 2 Standing Liberty quarters. There is also a Bicentennial/modern coinage page. But that page is fairly cheap to fill out. Anyway, it is interesting to see how it has and hasn't changed over time.

Very great progress so far!
A US type set is definitely one of my long-term goals.

thanks for the comments guys. Ive kind of put this set to the side for a while in order to fill some holes in my Washington set and my Merc set. It feels good to finally upgrade some coins in this one.

My coin club surprised me last night and gave me this as a reward for all the work and volunteering I did this year for my club's YN program...   I am really excited to have this coin because of how tough it is. This completes page 1 of the album and I only the following 5 coins remaining!  -20 cent piece -Capped Bust Quarter -Lettered Edge Bust Half -Seated Dollar (1840-1865) -Seated Dollar (1866-1873) those Seated dollars are gonna hurt.
