I could never bring myself to breaking up the mint packaging to put the proofs in an album. Just seems wrong in some way.

It was very easy for me to do. I had to fill the holes and the proposition of buying coins I already had (in the proof sets) seemed wrong. But to each their own!


I agree. I have put together a business strike set and now working on the proofs. I too, have no problem breaking open a proof set to get what I need. Good example, I was at an auction the other day. Picked up both the 1995 and 1997 silver proof sets for $30.00 apiece. Simply cheaper than buying the individual half dollars.

OK, I just completed my books! My first book is the Whitman 9127 (64-02) and I filled some of the extra slots with the three from 2003.

The second book is the Littleton LCF33, 04-current.

I am assembling a silver issue only set of Kennedy halves in an old unused 1964 vintage Whitman album. This album was made in 1964 and has on the inside front cover a list of dates 1964, 1964-D, 1965, and 1965-D which makes sense since Whitman would not have known when they made this album there would be no coins in 1965, or '66 and '67, produced with a D mint mark.

So far I have not yet had to pay more than $14.00 for any of the 90% silver coins. Of the early, 1964 - 1976 issues I need a 1969-D and the Bicentennial in uncirculated condition.

Very nice coins but now I've got a question - seeing those coins from the Whitman 64-02 album, I couldn't help but notice that they only have one slot for the S-mint for each year from 1992 to 2002. Which means no need to get a 90% silver example to complete each year. Is this still the case for Whitman albums, and does this also apply to the quarters and dimes?
