Rsxtacee Pillar of the Community United States 737 Posts	Posted 03/02/2011 12:35 pm Great looking album! I love the way it looks with circulated coins, even more so because when I start mine, it'll be the only way I could afford to do it. For now at least. Definitely an album that will take a few years to complete. Great job! Report this Post to the Staff
trdhrdr007 Pillar of the Community United States 2335 Posts	Posted 03/02/2011 1:35 pm Nice to see that someone else is working on a lower end 7070. I started a similar one about 6 months after I came to the forum. Progress was pretty good the first year but slowed way down once I got the easier holes filled & has been at a standstill for at least 6 months. I'm going to try to take some pictures of mine this weekend in the hope that it will get me moving forward again. Report this Post to the Staff

I haven't touched mine in over a year as far as adding coins to it. I have had other projects like restoring a camaro with my son and a few other Morgans I really didn't need but had to have that took all my money during that time Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 188560 Posts	Posted 03/02/2011 3:53 pm There is no reason to be in a hurry! The 1827 Bust Half Dollar (bought October 2010) was the first 7070 addition in over two years. And that addition in 2008 ended an eight year hiatus!

jbuck Moderator United States 188560 Posts	Posted 03/03/2011 5:54 pm The Twenty Cent Piece is my white whale. I found the perfect and I mean perfect one at a show about two years ago. The price was right. It was not in a slab (I have never had to crack one out yet, but I fear that day is inevitable). It was from a dealer I trusted (they have been at the shows longer than I have been going to them). I hesitated because it was still very big money for me. I regret it. By the next show, it was gone. That being said, the old dollars, especially the Trade dollar, scare me the most (see the slab statement above).

bwbollom Valued Member United States 293 Posts	Posted 03/03/2011 10:12 pm Hey Jbuck! Thanks for posting your circulated 7070 Set! I've been slowly working on one myself. I think I might have posted it a year or so ago, but I figured this would be a good time to haul it out and post some updated pics. Sorry for the low quality...these were definitely quickie pics. I even forgot to put something behind the pages, so I had to go black out the empty ones in Photoshop...oh well :) Anyway, here's my VERY CIRCULATED, and still not anywhere close to complete 7070 Set: Most of them were compiled from a bunch of different family members' collections. Then I've just been adding to it whenever I find something I like. It's never going to win a blue ribbon at the county fair, but it's a nice conversation piece and will be fun to show my kids (if we have any) someday :D Report this Post to the Staff

Quote: I even forgot to put something behind the pages, so I had to go black out the empty ones in Photoshop...oh well :) Do not sweat it. I guess my shop skills are better than I thought. There was no white sheet of paper in my photos... I had to do the same thing as you!
