Hopefully you will no sell this one but if you do, might only pay for the U-hauls gas.

Almost done with a Jefferson Album myself (Caps album) and agree it is a great set.
Just a few of the earlier dates that are tough to find in nice strikes and blast white.
I love them nice and white and shiny like that as well (although toned has a whole different look and appeal).

My progress so far. I decided to only complete the album using the original design (2003) so I'm using proofs 1952-1970S in the 2004P-2010P holes. I have some extras in the 2010D-2013S holes for now put will prob do a modern type set (new obv, 3 diff reverse Satin, enhanced unc, reverse proof) in those spots. Looking good! |

Yeah, I feel the same. Silver and copper are great, but there is something about the way nickels age and tone.
I love my nickel set, and I chose the coins to go in the album not by how many steps, or super high grade, but rather eye appeal. I'd put my set up against a "perfect" set any day. Until you put on a loupe, my set is prettier. Not too often people look at my albums through a loupe!

Until you put on a loupe, my set is prettier. Not too often people look at my albums through a loupe! I'm with you. I'll take eye appeal any day. You can't really see in the photos but many of proofs have some real pretty toning on them. |
