Oldephriam Valued Member United States 424 Posts	Posted 11/28/2015 12:11 pm Hello everyone, I have been collecting since I was Youngephriam, now I'm old. I am the second generation in a family of coin collectors that is now in its fourth generation. I gave a start to my grand-niece about three years ago and I just recently hooked my grand-daughter with a collection of Jefferson nickels. Most of my collection is modern coins. I am focusing on Jefferson nickels right now, I have four holes left to fill in my Dansco album. After I finish the nickel album I think I will move onto finishing my Kennedy half dollar album (I have 15 holes to fill in this one). I would love suggestions on another series to start. I have most of the modern coins, but I am considering Franklin half dollars or modern commemorative half dollars. I would like to upgrade my LWC's and Indian Head cents. I'm not really interested in anything older than this, neither is my bank account. I do have some old Chinese coins. I bought these when I was young and trying to find my true coin interest. I'm not sure if they are even real, they are small brass coins with a square hole in the middle. I will post a picture when Santa brings me the camera that I asked for Christmas. I'm looking forward to learning more about coins from the other members. Happy Hunting! Report this Post to the Staff

dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 11/28/2015 9:21 pm to CCF. Franklin half dollars is a relatively easy set to collect but also consider Eisenhower dollars. Report this Post to the Staff
Oldephriam Valued Member United States 424 Posts	Posted 11/28/2015 10:47 pm The Eisenhower dollar set was the first Dansco book I completed many years ago. I briefly considered completing another set because I had almost half of them, but I traded them in for a certified 2015 Eisenhower reverse proof. Dollars are my first obsession so I have a complete set of circulation/proof strikes from 1971 to present. Does the Buffalo nickel or Franklin half series have any key dates that will break the bank?
