Thanks, everybody! Quote:
Just wanted to say your excellent collection made me add 3 more proofs to my albums. That is a major compliment coming from you! |

There are only a few coins that I have proofs instead of the business strikes. Very nice! |

Thanks, jbuck! I recently opted to start upgrading some of the coins, so I purchased all BU coins from 1990-1999 in mint cello packs I also bought a new 79 type l proof. Hopefully it won't look as bad as the other one I have. We shall see! I'm really proud of this set that I've built and I think it's probably my greatest achievement collection-wise. I do like my V nickels and Jefferson nickels too, though. |

Thanks, guys! This is the only series I think I'm working on at the moment personally. It is, after all, mostly just upgrades. Kind of over my Rosie dimes at the moment. I might add some more Ike dollars here and there too. I haven't really had much thoughts about collecting coins lately honestly. A lot of personal things going on which has taken up the majority of my time and thoughts. Everything's good, though. |

True! Dunno. We'll see in time! That said, for now, I'm focusing on upgrading coins in various collections, this one being one of them as well! I recently received some goodies. Some BU cents in Mint cello packs! 1990-99  With the new 79! Oh yeah! Much better!  Upgraded coins from the 90's   Edited by Humanist1287

Some BU cents in Mint cello packs! 1990-99 How were they? Sometimes you get lucky and someone was just after another coin in the set and didn't care about the penny. Other times, they are mostly MS60-63 at best. |

Uh, I'm not sure about the actual grades. Out of all the coins I got though, only one of them had issues. So, not too bad. Sucks, but it happens. The 92-D had some of that disgusting black spotting around the edges. Not gonna lose sleep over it personally. What I should do is just buy all the rest altogether in mint cello packs and get it out of the way. After upgrading all of the business strike Memorial cents, I'd like to potentially go back and re-visit possibly upgrading some of the wheat cents, at least the later ones, so that way my pages match better! As far as I know, everything on the final page of the Wheat cent era is pretty doable in BU, price-wise. Edited by Humanist1287
