Thanks all. I think I will slowly replace alot of them, especially the ones on the last page. They are just too corroded and oddly toned to my liking. I'll try and find ones that have full or at least most of the LIBERTY showing, so it will be a slow process due to cost. But I'd rather get better ones vs quantity.

Replaced the 1891. They get pricey when you go for a better looking one.  This is the one it replaced..  |

Nice looking replacement. I just ordered a Dansco of this series for myself ( purchased with Christmas money). I only have a couple of these so far. I'm looking forward to learning about a new series. Your set is great and gives me inspiration.
The 77 is scaring me, but this series is attainable- I hope.
Thanks for posting!

When you have a nice album with holes, they beg to be filled!
I agree with your statement about quality over quantity. Maybe F12 on up. Get some AU/UNC coins too in the high mintage years. I personally enjoy having a mix of grades.
Looking forward to your progress, SeaMonkey!

Thanks all. The 1877 will probably be the last one I ever get considering the ones I saw in AG were about $400  My pic is kinda dark, here is the sellers pic of the 1891, shows better.   |

Look like the 1859 is the nicest coin in your set. That is unusual as the later dates are so much more plentiful. Enjoyed looking through your set. Thanks for sharing. IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
