I wanted to share this with you guys. For your viewing pleasure and opinions. phankins11 inspired me to put these out here. A little history and background. I've been working/focused on this set for about six months now. All (32 through 64) are (or will be) MS except for the 32-S, that one is an AU-58. Although I'm not a grader, I thought it looked exceptional in-hand so I bought it. I've got some toners mixed in. They are all 63's or better. Some folks consider toners damaged. As long as the slabs didn't say cleaned, detailed or damaged, it worked for me. The 65 through 80 all came out of Mint or Proof sets, non were slabbed. So yes, I've been breaking them out. I took pictures of the coin and the entire slab, print the pictures, break out the coin and bar-code tab. I taped the bar-code tab to the pictures. Then I put the pictures in a clear sleeve in the back of the album. So, I only have two left. Then I guess it's on to another Dansco. Thanks for listening. Sorry, the pictures are not the best.                  Edited by USSID18

@ussis18, that is some nice work there. I, for one, would love to see close-ups of the '32-S (just to drool a little bit)!

I just hope you guys don't come back and say: THAT COIN IS NOT AN AU58!! AT BEST IT'S A VG8!  . I'm hoping GR58 posts the first page of his Washington Dansco. Standby... Edited by USSID18

Now that I'm thinking of it, I should have taken the plastic sleeves out of the album "before" I took the pictures!  Edited by USSID18

Really nice set there!
I vote Debrajc is next to show off her WQ set!
I'm 12 or so away from my '32-'08 set, which is AU to proof, So I'm probably 2nd or 3rd!
