Might work on some sort of labeling such that it's easier to tell what's what from the top. Kind of like a Whitman Sampler guide.
That sounds like a fun idea!

I have almost memorized mine. It helps that the PCGS slabs have changed over the years. Most are in current plastic, but I have some visible boundary markers created by the few in older slabs (no rattlers, my oldest are Gen 4.4). This helps guide me to specific issues .

I am not wanting to get a slabbed Ike set, at least for right now. The Dansco albums are much smaller and would take up a lot less space for my raw Ikes compared to the CAPS.
Nothing wrong with that!

I enjoyed my completed Ike Dansco for 23 years before I tackled the graded set.

Now I have two Ike sets. More to love!

One of my first projects when I start collecting was a PCGS graded set of Ikes. I still need the 1971-D Type 1 and 1972-P Type 3. The clads are mostly MS-65, with the 1972-P Type 1&2 being MS-63 and 1971-P an MS-64. The silver circs are MS-67 and 1973-S is an MS-68. The clad and silver proofs are all PR-69. I had the 21st ranked set at some point but it doesn't mean that much to me the compete. I may just get all of those clads to MS-65.

I may put together another (non-graded) set since they aren't too expensive. I feel as though my collection is very diluted trying to build every denomination set from Barbers forward and Three Cent Nickels and Two Cent copper and Indian Heads forward. I just gave myself a headache.

to the Community, Bosstone100!

Good to see another Ike lover here.

In my case, the PCGS set was my second. My first was a Dansco 8176 like this one.

I still remember Ikes as a kid. There was a yearly church bazaar and my uncle used to gamble over there. they paid off in Ikes. This was probably the early to mid 80s. Ikes were still readily available. I grab them whenever I can at banks, etc. but I've never found a silver that way and certainly nothing that doesn't look like it dragged through mine field.

(I meant PR-69 on those proofs)

I meant to fix that for you earlier and forgot. I fixed it now.

It would appear that my Album is not showing all the proper labeling when I first posted it. I may have to upload more to reflect a 'completed' album.

I see where you added labels in the page 3 images and again on page 4. Have they changed since then?
