All I can say is, good luck. I've tried it two times and given up two times.

I have to agree on the good luck part, one of the more difficult sets out there, too many varieties.

Mark, That's a big challenge and so I wish you luck. I have everything except the 1793 (I want the chain cent and would probably have to sell my house) and the 1799. I need to rethink how I store them as now they are in flips and I'm not sure about moving them to an album.  Member ANA and EAC "You got to lose to know how to win". Dream On by Aerosmith |

It looks like a great start Mark. Even if you don't complete it, it's a beautiful American coin to look at that's for sure!  |

It's a beautiful set with so many different types and major varieties that it never gets boring. I hope you are able to keep to nice even Brown tones and avoid the obviously cleaned.
Grades on this set range all over the place. Prices make humongous jumps per grade. But for my money I'd rather give up a grade for coins being evenly colored without distractions.
Just think of each date as a child to love and pick them to become members of a happy family.

It looks good so far! Good luck with the rest. It will definitely be a pleasing set to look through when you're done. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Nice looking album Doing a year set does sound possible. Of course there are a couple expensive years. For me ..I did purchase the Dansco album. I have no intention of completing the set, just a place I like to put my large cents. Good luck on completing this album. |
