I acquired an AU 1857-O Seated Liberty quarter and an XF 1838 Reeded Edge Capped Bust half at a coin show today.

The quarter completes the quarter dollars, the Barber half is the last the half dollars required I need to get and that plus the 20 cent piec will complete the page. I'll take a picture of the page when it's completed.

The quarter looks better than the photo in hand and what makes this a particularly nice addition is that it is a branch mint coin.

What dime?

It will be a while before I complete this album, hopefully by this time next year. This album is for VF to AU coins with a select few modern coins in which getting a circulated example isn't practical or even possible.

The first page has just one large cent, the Braided Hair Coronet 1840-57, the CN Indian cent 1860-64, the bronze Indian Head cent 1864-1909, all of the Lincoln cents and a 3 cent nickel.

Page two has one Seated Liberty half dime, 1860-73 Legend, the Buffalo nickel Type II 1913-38, the two Jefferson nickels and all but the Liberty Seated 1853-55 arrows dime on the bottom row.

Page 3 is missing the 20 cent piece and Barber half. Eventually I'll replace the 1964 quarter with one dated 1932 as that's my mothers' birth year.

Page 4 is missing the two Seated Liberty dollars and the Trade dollar. It has an AU 1927-S Peace dollar I gave to my father about 25 years ago and I got it back after he passed away earlier this year. This album was one I was not planning to do but I needed a suitable place to put this Peace dollar instead of being loose in a box.

Page 5 I haven't got around to getting the Commemorative 1983 - Date yet and it will probably be one of the last to get as I don't much care for the modern commems.

Page six, the gold page, I have an MS-62 (PCGS) Liberty Head quarter eagle and an MS-62 (PCGS) Indian Head ten dollar gold piece with my name on them from a friend that I'll be getting sometime soon. At the moment it sits empty.

Congrats on the pickups! The Reeded edge half is one of the harder ones to find in nice condition and with a good strIke as your example has.
