 I picked this up from my local shop on Saturday for $20.  I've managed to fill the holes with 'loose change' that I had laying around. I did have to sacrifice a blue Ike and a Bicentennial set in the process. The T-1 SLQ and the T-1 Buff are the only 2 coins that might cost me a bit more. I do want readable dates, and those two cost a bit more when the date is present.

Looks like you're doing well. Did you have a question, or are you just showing?

Looks really good so far!  Quote: I did have to sacrifice a blue Ike and a Bicentennial set in the process. Their sacrifice will be long remembered.  Quote: Did you have a question, or are you just showing? No need to ask a question. Sometimes it is just fun to show off.

Nice pickup at a very nice price.
It looks like your off to a good start filling the holes. I like how this set has a separate hold for the 65 - 70 Half dollars, Dansco should do the same.
I agree that the T1 SLQ will be a more costly hole to fill.
But on the Buffalo the T1 is not to bad for the "P" mint, The "D and S" mints are a little costly in better grades.

Probably my number one gripe about the 7070, the second being no split for Memorial cents before and after 1982. I know there are plenty of places where the classics need more holes, but I came into the 7070 as a modern guy hoping to have just a few worthy classics.

Well, I'm done... For now.   I pulled the 1883 no-cents V nickel out of my 7070 to complete this set. (It gives me an excuse to upgrade.)
