Thank you, my friends! I am quite excited for the 1914-D to come in. Should be here next week! I finally got a response from Profile coins. They actually opted to just give me a refund and I could keep the coins. Wasn't expecting that, but actually, works out nicely, as I can have my full and replace the coins eventually. The first one I'll be getting rid of is that horrible looking 79-S type l. I'm also thinking about dropping the US Mint Treasury tokens, and just putting in some similarly dated Wheat cents. I.E., putting a 1909 VDB next to the other 1909 VDB. Or should I keep the tokens instead?

The few times I've had issues, the sellers just refunded the money or offered to send a replacement and not want the coins back, especially the larger sellers. I guess they figure they can't really sell then anyway in that condition. That's why I always contact them with pictures to see how they want to resolve it.

Fantastic collection Humanist!
Question though - the 2009 8 coin set, are they the zinc coins taken from circulation? Or are they the satin finish Full copper coins from the annual uncirculated mint set?
if they are the zinc versions, I have an extra satin (full copper) set still in the uncirculated mint set that you can have.

I missed the final pics. Looking great. Personally, I would leave the tokens that way you know which ones you still need even though you would probably never spend that kind of money for them.

I am pretty sure they are the normal, zinc business strikes. Yeah, I would happily take them off your hands, my friend

Thank you. Yeah, I'll probably just leave them for now honestly. Quote: you can always weigh them to be sure, bit I'll send you my 'extra' ones I had sitting on a shelf for years now. But, I'll need another email with your address Nahhh. Lol. I'm fairly certain they are the zinc ones. I got them all either in change or as individual bonus coins from sellers on ebay included with purchases. I'll send you my address.  Quote: This is the satin coin set you will get Excellent! I'd love those honestly.

 So, I came across this recently on ebay. There is no official port for the 81 Type 2 proof. This would be a really cool way to circumvent that.  Beautiful coin. I think if I purchased one of these, that is, graded and slabbed, I'd just leave it right in the holder. That saidddd, uh... I don't really feel like paying nearly 70 buckaroo's for this  Maybe one day I'll find a decently cheap one.

Quote: So, this is what the album/collection now looks like! Looking good!  Quote: I feel super accomplished and proud! You should!  Quote: Nahhh. Lol. I'm fairly certain they are the zinc ones. Once you see them next to the satin, you will know for sure. The cents are where the satin finish really make a difference.

That would be an easy way of adding it to your collection for those extra coins that are not labeled in the album. That way you don't have to figure out where to put it or shift coins around. That's what I'm doing with those matt Jefferson nickels from 1994 and 1997, I have them as graded slab and they are going to stay in the slab.
