Ha... you beat me to posting this by 5 minutes.  I always look forward to my annual sets, the silver probably with the most anticipation. My CC was charged for my enrollments, so I assume mine are processing too. I really have to sit down and figure out my go-forward strategy for albums and pages. I have a lot of albums that ended in 2019 or so and I have sets that need to be broken and put into folders. The CAPS and Whitman albums are straightforward enough, but the Dansco will require some creativity. |

My credit card has been authorized for the enrollment. Just a small pinch.   Quote:

I bought some blank pages and a binder for cents, nickels, and dimes once the original albums were filled. I have separate custom albums for those heavy half dollars (no more than four pages each). Of course, the quarters and baby dollars have their own special series albums (Of course, the American Women Quarters and Innovation dollars are pending). |

My "go forward" strat, is to buy 2 each on the mint sets (except for the Quarters only sets. I'll keep one set in OGP - as I have an OGP collection (every year - of uncirc, clad, and silver proofs) going back to 1954) and the other set of each I break out an they go into their proper Dansco album - even if I have to create and label my own albums for now. Someday I hope to find a company that can press the gold labeling onto the outside of the album covers to match the original Dansco - If I can do that, I won't need them to make my own albums. (  @ Dansco -  ). The only coins I need to buy from Ebay will be the PDS business strike quarters and the PD American Innovation Dollars - everything else is in the second mint sets I get. |

This set - which of the coins are pure silver besides the quarters? I read the specs on the USM site and it looks like the dime is also, but not the penny or nickel. Am I correct?

 It has always annoyed me having duplicates between the clad and proof sets. I have longed for them to issue an "Album Hole Fillers" set which combines the two and removes the duplication. I will admit it is not as bad now that the Presidential dollars are no longer being made and I suppose it is one reason to be happy that the Innovation dollars are sold separately.

I'm glad that the innovations are separate too. (lets me spread out my spending...)

I have one on enrollment and it went into processing mode yesterday.
Between the ASE, Commemorative, Proof and Uncirculated sets and Silver Medal (Armed Forces) issues this year, one of each is enough for the pocket book.

Mine went into 'Enrollment Processing' on Tuesday, and had stayed like that since. Now The mint has turned off the orders page for the sale, I cannot check on it at this point.
