Congrats and welcome back!  That 10 & 25 Penniä do have some nice luster. The 50 ain't too shabby either.  100 years in the making!

Thanks guys. It feels good  The next set I have my eye on completing is a Great Britain Edward VII circulating type set (8 coins). It's great that I've learned to ignore pre-done albums and series sets. Coming up with my own "sets" to collect based on what I like is much more fun

It is certainly a good idea. Good luck with the next set.

Congrats on completing a type set! And congrats on finding all the coins in such great quality, too! Quote: It's great that I've learned to ignore pre-done albums and series sets. Coming up with my own "sets" to collect based on what I like is much more fun Where I live (actually in a country bordering Finland), we don't really have such pre-done or pre-made albums and we're thus 'forced' to get creative and come up with ideas for sets by ourselves. To me, that's part of the fun although I have to admit that I always put my goals too high to ever be able to complete one. I sure have completed subsets of those, but whole sets... no. So that's where pre-made albums are nice: no chance to set too high goals. Plus that they usually look quite a bit nicer than 2x2s.

Very Nice! I just started finding the Pennia. Wasn't looking for them but interesting coins.

@UltraRant, I guess I hadn't really thought about the looks of it. My world coin collection is not really organized in pages or anything at the moment. Quote: Very Nice! I just started finding the Pennia. Wasn't looking for them but interesting coins. Thanks. One thing that makes the Markka interesting is how many different types there are due to all the size and metal changes. @Coinfrog, next is a Great Britain Edward VII circulating type set. I really like all the designs. That florin is one of my all time favorites!
