After a few years of collecting (wondering around aimlessly) I've finally completed my first set. Here is my BU Lincoln Memorial and Lincoln Shield set. It wasn't difficult or expensive to put together. In fact, the CAPS album (2015) and air-tites probably cost as much as the coins. In any event, I'm happy I finally accomplished something numismatically.

Next up is a LWC set, which is about 1/3 complete. If I feel ambitious I might complete a set of each US small cent type.

That's quite an impressive set in that album. Seeing it like that really makes the idea of putting such a set together very appealing. Congratulations.

You have some very nice high grade Lincolns in that set! Congrats.

BUT....you're not done! Where are the proof issues?

Seriously, tho, does Caps make a page for those? How 'bout a blank and label yourself? That would be really cool!
I like the layout, I just can't afford to go that route, too many series!

I'm considering putting together a proof Lincoln album.
The nice thing about CAPS albums is that they're completely customizable, at least the album covers are. I might need to use blank pages. I will cross that bridge someday.

I got this album on the CAPS Albums website, but I found them cheaper on ebay. Regardless of which site I purchased an album, they came from the same person (shipper).
