Ham, here is a picture of the "round plastic cylinder" I used to help remove an Air-Tite from a CAPS page. I use just the top small section. It is a column of different sized containers.  They can be found at: https://www.amazon.com/Blender-Bott...%2Bjars&th=1The top (smallest) cylinder section I use is 2-1/4" in diameter and 1" tall. As I started to collect coins, 5-1/4" floppy disks were on the way out. So I had a couple of empty boxes that perfectly fit the modern proof sets!  CelticKnot, will be expecting those ASE CAPS album pictures soon!  |

@jwm74 - should have some photos in a week or so. I placed an order with the US Mint Thursday and when that comes in I will have a bunch of ASEs to pop in: all 3 2016 issues, and bullion and Proof W for 2017. Missed out on the Congratulations set, so not sure what my plan will be for the 2017 Proof S.

Ok, as promised, here are photos of my newly-updated CAPS 2229 ( ASE 2012-Date) album. First, an old one of the already-finished front of Page 1:  Now the back of that page, taken tonight:  And finally, the front of page 2, with 2016 and 2017 populated for everything currently available, minus the 2017 S Proof, which doesn't have a slot yet. Probably will end up having to wait 3 years or so for them to update page 2 for the 2016 30th anniversary ASE labeling and the 2017 ASE Proof S slot.  |

Thanks, jbuck. Before I decide what to do with one, I have to acquire a 2017S!  |

WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL . . . I got sidetracked planning the storage options and forgot about the collecting part. I went to get started and found out that I was missing the 1957 proof set. Also, the new CAPS Type album had some additional coins and I am still missing the 1921 Peace dollar. (I filled the hole with a beautiful copper replica for the time being). The 1957 proof is on its way and I will provide pictures of this first page and the Type album soon. I have enjoyed the ASE album pics from CelticKnot. Not sure I am brave enough to tackle the CAPS ASE album due to some of the "rare" editions represented. I may just go with a blank album where I can showcase the bullion/uncirculated and proof coins I have been collecting since 1986 (well, uncirculated since 1986 and proofs since 2000). Thanks for the "prod" to provide those pictures. My coin picture taking is still in its infancy. |

Transferred coins from the Dansco 7070 to Caps 1800's Type Set, and 1900's & 2000's Type Set albums. I am 2 coins away from total completion. Bust Half Dime 1800-05, and Capped Bust quarter 1815-28. I'll post some photos when I complete the sets. Ham |

@jwm....Another converted to CAPS albums. I love mine and yours are coming along NICELY! and yes....most of the time when you convert you will be shopping for more coins. Have you noticed the hole for the 2014 gold anniversary Kennedy? The 1998 matte proof and the gold were the two I had to shop for and found right here on this forum from another member. Accented hair 64 also I think. Can't wait for the PICS!!!  CelticKnot. Very nice ASE photos! From, another CAPS fan  17 and counting  |
