I've slowly been adding to the proof/SMS page and it looks quite different from the last I posted. Not all of these are GEM but, these little hunks of copper-nickel start to get a bit pricey the further back you go!
So now, I have all proofs/SMS from 1952-2003 (excluding satins). I plan on adding back to 1950 in the album and getting the handful of earlier proofs in slabs.
Sorry for the pics, these are difficult to capture in groups and through the plastic slides:
Thanks for looking!

Beautiful Proofs. You will end up getting the earlier ones. In the early 70's I paid 300 bucks for a ty 2 silver 1942 P proof. It crashed and never really rebounded. I sold it at a loss and have since replaced it, they are still relatively cheap. Get that one out of the way and the rest are a piece of cake. It is an awesome set you have there. Congrats!

I've recently been looking at '42-P Type IIs as a Christmas present to myself. The going rates seem to be $100-$150 for examples worth getting. We shall see...
P.S. If my future Secret Santa sees this, I would also like a 1964 SMS example.

I recently purchased a 1968-1999 run of BU nickels in Mint cello and added the needed upgrades over the last couple days. Now I really need to focus on the first two pages (minus War Nickels) and start getting some BU coins in there!
Here are the (nearly) 100% BU pages. I still need 1982-83 upgrades.
P.S. The walls in this room are basically orange, so that's why the right side coins have that tint to them. Only a few had noticeable yellow toning.
