Whitman Type Set, Lost...then Found + LCS Visit

I developed an interest in coins about the time of last year's ASE set by having a small hoard of cents to sift through. Like many others I ran out and bought a few Whitman folders, my favorite of which is their 20th Century Type Coins folder.

About 4 months ago our basement flooded and the resulting rush to secure my sorting area mixed about 40 pounds of sorted cents and precipitated my misplacing the Type Set folder. Money has been a bit tight lately and the embarrassment of replacing lost coins had sapped my interest in the hobby.

Flash forward to 3 weeks ago and I discovered the Type Set where I'd left it for safe keeping (of course, having forgotten where!). What a load off! 2 weeks later an old personal loan got paid in full! So today I went to my local coin store to see what I could buy with silver so low. Here's what I got:









Also picked up a steel cent & a silver nickel. Dude had to get the nickel from a stash in the back as all "junk" or bullion silver is long gone. He told me somebody came in and cleaned him out of "melt" silver nickels the other day.

I was hoping to pick up a bunch of cheap dimes but no such luck. 2013 ASE bullion was going for $30.50, I skipped it but may go back.

Super excited about my Liberties! Been eyeing these two spots for months and finally finding coins I like is very satisfying!

Thanks CCF, for keeping me interested in and educated about this hobby! Now enjoy my incomplete 20th Century Type Coins set. :)
