Being that I haven't even thought about my old Whitman coin folders in ages, I decided to open them up and take a peek. First book is Lincoln Cents #2 1941-1974. This one was on top of the stack so I opened it first. FULL! Well, wait a minute. Not quite so fast. Seems that I am still shy my 55-s. What a shame too. My 55-d couldn't look nicer. Well I suppose it could if it had it's mate from the west side to relax with. Guess I better get to picking cents, maybe after 20 years and a return to the hobby I'll be able to find my missing 55-s.


The hunt is on...

, DrJamesDaddy!

We'd love to see pictures of your (nearly) full album! Good luck on the hunt and keep us posted!

Well, let's see how my photos look. Sorry about the delay. Most of these were collected from change when I was around 8 or 9 (25 or so years ago).

Nice! Any chance you could get some larger pix?

Also, have you considered transferring your collection to an album (vs. the folder(s) they're in now)?

Glad to see your back in the hobby.

Funny about the same thing happened to me.

When I was a kid .. mid to late 60's, I was filling that
Whitman #2 from change. The only one I did not find was
the 1955 S.

In the 1980's I got back into collecting ... I have that
hole filled now.

It is always fun to look back at things from our collecting past. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll try to get a bit larger photos. Some real dogs in there, but some nice ones too.

I haven't really looked into an album. But I suppose it's not out of the question.

looks like a good collection. Doesn't look like it will take much to finish!
