Those are just gorgeous I have so far held off temptation on the individual coins, gotta stay focused on the sets until I reach my goal, but once I do branch into that realm I know those will be among the first I start collecting (especially after seeing these pics of your collection

I like it. Knowing your photos are from phone, I grade it at SP70, or MS70 with either TPG service, as I see no imperfections anywhere. Don't put it in your Dansco...just sayin.

Thanks again, but it is already in my Dansco - I have always wanted a 'display' version of my collection, and also use it as a sort of 'reference library' too.

You have a beautiful collection of these. The 1995-W is out of my price range, and I am also missing two from 2011 (sold in the five piece set), the 2019 reverse proof and the V75 one from 2020. Otherwise, a complete collection of bullion, burnished and proof issues 1986-2022, along with the 2023 bullion and West Point proof issue.
All of mine are in the original government packaging, except the bullion pieces are in air tites. Oh and I did purchase two 2021 bullion pieces in MS-70, Type I and Type II just so see what the fuss was about.

Very nice Ers. you should post up some pictures of them in a new topic for your sets. Thank you for the comments, My proofs are in OGP, but I'm tired of having to open boxes to see them, so I'm slowly getting the proofs graded, and I'll build a secure display case for them. (I will be saving the OGP boxes and COA's in storage of course.) I want my Burnished and Bullions in a Dansco album with all the rest of my individual coins.

That would be the C-130 Gunship. This is her "retirement" photo. When I get home, I'll get a better image of it.

Very nice set-up there!!! The only change that I would make is to put them in Alphabetical order. I'm a bit OCD!  I'm still  over your last two coins! If I may ask, who's cherished flag? I have my Brother's and my Dad's.

Thanks Debbie, but they are in numerical ascending order by volume number (I'm OCD too)   That Flag is my flag for one on my reenlistment ceremonies - I was at Pearl Harbor and had my ceremony at the Arizona Memorial and this flag was actually flown on the actual ship while I took my oath.

Our OCD just takes us in different directions.  Thank you for your service Sir! Beautiful remembrances!  That's quite the honor! My Dad got quite sadly sentimental when he visited the USS Arizona.
