Thanks, everybody! This is my first actual completed coin series, and one of my favorites to collect.

Some of the from-circulation nickels in my Whitman album are in a similar condition; I upgrade them as I come across nicer examples. But lately, not a lot of change passes through my hands so upgrades are very infrequent now.


Yeah, I don't go out of my way honestly to upgrade most of these coins. If I am looking through some coin rolls and find a better looking one, I'll do it. That's about it, though. And I'd much rather spend my money towards working on other sets that I have in progress.

Haven't posted anything on my nickels in quite awhile.

So here is how the set is looking currently

And here are the random coins that don't have spots due to the way how Dansco sets up their albums, which is fine.
These are all the proofs & SMS from 1956-1970, and also the 1981 type 2.
My-Revamped-Jefferson-Nickel-Collection

I should post some shots of my secondary album sometime soon, as I also have a 7113 album. This is the 8113, which includes proofs.

I have also opted to continue collecting the series, despite not wanting to previously. I added a blank page to my 7113 album to add business strikes from 2006 and onward. In the 8113 album, I plan on eventually adding a blank page as well for proofs. I will upgrade coins from my main (8113) album eventually as well over time.

I may eventually organize them differently once I get to a certain point.

Also, just for fun, here are some of my other nickels:
Buffalo nickels
My-Revamped-Jefferson-Nickel-Collection
My-Revamped-Jefferson-Nickel-Collection
Small collection of Liberty nickels
My-Revamped-Jefferson-Nickel-Collection

That's a lot!
Nickels, in general, outside of the Lincoln Cent collection, are by far my favorite denomination of coins to collect. I would also like to start up some kind of Shield nickel collection eventually, but I haven't really found any good way to house them yet and they are quite expensive.

That's all I got for now!

Thanks, Scopru. I'm proud of it as it is the first set I've ever completed. Hell, the only one I've ever completed. Lol.

Thanks, seamonkey!

I'm mulling it over and have tons of active nickel collections I'm slowly working on.
I'm not sure adding another expensive one is the way to go yet. But, we'll see.
I'm currently working on:
Jefferson nickels (Dansco 7113) 1938-2005. A secondary set that I am trying to fill out only from CRH.
Buffalo nickels
Liberty nickels
Canadian nickels

And also Jeffersons from 2006-current. So yeah, that's a lot!
