 I am so stoked! It took about six months total I'd say, but I finally got this thing filled. My very first complete folder. Nothing beats the veritable nerd joy I am feeling right now.

Mainly CRH, besides one of the steel ones that I bribed a customer at my old cashier job for. I always knew my coupon stockpile would come in handy!
1941S, 1954S, and 1952 were the last few I had been waiting on. I found the 41S and the 52, after that I kind of just hid in my room with countless coin rolls until I found the last one.

Good job, Harkness! Can't believe the condition of your 54 Philly. That's a blazer!
I am working an that set as well. Only need the 43-D and 48-S to finish. I'm also trying to go all the way back to 1934. Am missing 10 coins total.

the last one for me was the 49s. Though the steelies in the book came from my neighbor when I was a kid, so those dont really count for me.

Harkness, There is a great feeling. We maybe find other ways to complete the collection but, CRH has been a lot of fun.  |

What brand is that book? I only ask because 41 through 74 seems weird for a date range.

They are still that way... http://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/pro...man-folders/I am not sure which brand Harkness has, but I would not be surprised of they copied the Whitman layout. |
