I bought this Franklin set a couple weeks ago.

I am a Dansco fan, so I switched to this album today.

Not a bad set, several coins I will keep a eye out for upgrade.

Have to say I am liking this set more than I thought I would.

Well done.

The Franklin set is short and sweet. Like the Eisenhower dollar set, it is easy to build since it has the goal posts right in front of you.

Not like the 7070 I have been filling for 22 years.

Very nice set. I always like the Franklin halves. I do have a complete set myself.

Thanks ... both of you.

I can see, if this set was all 64/65 ... it would look really good.

But then .. I don't have much into this one .. pretty good
if I look at dollar value.
Rest in Peace

Nice set and it does look better in a Dansco album.

I've got my #1 set in a Dansco album and my #2 and #3 sets in classic Library of coins albums.

Different sets .. but I have a couple library of coins albums.

For some reason I like them too. Sort of classic way to collect.
Rest in Peace

My #2 set is in a circa 1962 album (my guess as the mintage numbers stop at 1962) that goes up to 1970. I filled it with Kennedy business and proof strikes.

Awesome set. I only have the 63's in mine, but they're BU and I'm building it back whenever I see what I like. No rush. Focusing on 7070 for a bit.

I can understand that ... I am always waiting for upgrades
for my 7070.

And for me .. my focus seems to changes from week to week

Good luck with your searching

Great set! Those guys have some good eye appeal, no matter the grade.

The Franklin halves is the first album I finished.
