 Very VERY VERY VERY INSANELY nice! This is the type of thing that REALLY gets you going! Very nice set, are you thinking of adding the gold page?

No plans for a gold page, out of my budget. I do not have one single gold coin in my collection. Although, one of these days I hope to get a good deal on a double eagle. And, before someone asks about page 5, this is an old 7070 and original page 5. Later 7070 albums had an upgraded page 5 that included Sac dollar, State Quarter, modern commemorative, and American Silver Eagle.

Congratulations!  I have been working on mine for almost 23 years now and have three more holes (the three early dollars). Mine came with that version of page five, too. I bought an upgrade page from Wizard a few years ago. My 7070 is linked it the sig.

Congratulations. I've been working on my type set for years and am still not finished. These sets require dedication to the hobby to complete.

That is a real nice collection type. I am OCD so I collect mint and date sets and have refrained from starting sets I can't finish. However, this reminds me of all great coins that could be collected even if I can't fill a date/mint set (Saint-Gaudens $20) for instance. I have six sets now with three complete and two I am working on to fill. The two that are killing me are Morgans and the LSQ (1916) but I will get there before I give up the ghost, Enshalla.

Nice! One of my favorite things to do when I "play" with my coins (as my wife calls it) is look at my type set. I've started the gold page but am only about half way done as far as cost goes. One day, maybe I'll be posting my finished 7070 with the gold page.

Awesome! The gold page is a big commitment. Too much for me.
I have a continuation of the 7070 in the form of a 20th Century type set (in a display that hangs on my man cave wall) and a 21st Century type set (2X2s and binder).

Super Job .....
Of all the books I show non-coin people the one they always like is the type coins .... I think it is the book I look at the most, some beautiful coins minted over the years, simply marvelous!
