just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 08/29/2018 08:23 am That is what I like about Dansco. They left a slot for the 1913 just in case you got one to put in an Album. All nice sets shown here. I have two completed sets but both need lots and lots of upgrading. Report this Post to the Staff

thisistheshow Pillar of the Community United States 987 Posts	Posted 08/29/2018 09:53 am Thank you to all for sharing these great pictures. I love the look of a set as it is coming together in an album- no matter what stage it is in. Also, I had never, that I remembered, read about the Racketeer nickels, so thank you. I did some reading on those. I am curious about how do you know if a Racketeer nickel was made then or now? Report this Post to the Staff

Not 100% sure, but I'll share my thoughts on this question. By the way, I have never purchased one of these exactly because of the difficulty with knowing when this PMD occurred. Anyway, if the underlying coin is AU or better, then I'd potentially believe that it was plated contemporaneously, but if has worn down below this, then I'd be quite confident that it was done much later. Additionally, I would only believe a coin to be legit if it was dated in the first year of the series ('83).

Wizardnyc Valued Member United States 253 Posts	Posted 09/10/2018 11:51 pm Only an 1885 left! And a few upgrades...especially the 1890, 1893 and 12-D. Both the 1886 and 12-S have a light scratch on the obverse that is visible under harsh light at extreme angles. I can live with it.

Wizardnyc Valued Member United States 253 Posts	Posted 09/11/2018 2:04 pm Thx! It's been a lot of years, but I'm determined to finish this. But it is going to take some time. No fillers for the 1885. Report this Post to the Staff
