Here is what I've got so far... What do you think?

Possibly picking up a Half Cent soon, but we'll see.

Rest in Peace

Definitely a good start, but...

I'm a huge fan of buying lower grade or problem coins for my type album and then upgrading them as time and budget permits, since the alternative is leaving holes unfilled for years at a time and perhaps never actually completing the album. And if that's what you are doing, I wish you many happy years of seeing your album evolve over time.

If that's not what you're planning on doing, however, I have to ask why you went with such extreme low ball examples for some of the coins. Most of your coins are quite nice, but your Three-cent Silver Piece is nearly unrecognizable and your Draped Bust Large Cent is literally full of holes, and you could probably find much nicer examples of each for under $100 on ebay.

Ah well, to each his own and there's no one right way to fill an album. Regardless of your intentions, I wish you the best of luck with it and hope you find it to be an enjoyable experience.

I have 14 holes remaining plus all ten of the Gold pieces. It has been really fun to put together. Go to my want list to see if you have anything I need to fill a hole!
