After 22 years of collecting, I finally finished my first album!

I would like to post a special thanks to Kceb10, Jbakic, Deadmunny, afernbaugh, & Prethen for trading with and selling to me at great prices. I also would like to thank CCF for providing a great place to interact with some great collectors.

In case you are wondering all the Ben's are resting comfortably, even bugs bunny ben.

Only thing special about the collection is that it is mine. The grades range from heavily circulated to a couple that have some bell lines. But it also was put together on trades and a shoe string budget.

I know the feeling. I'm working on the same shoe string budget with my Franklin halves. So far mine are all heavily circulated, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Congrats! I've just started back into coin collecting (did a little when I was a kid...really not all that much tho), and I can't wait to complete my first album...I'm working on a tight budget too, and trying to get nice grade Walkers for a decent price is next to impossible...lol.

Spider,

I have five extra that I was saving for trade bait.

I have a 53d 54p 59p 62p 63p.

If you need any of these send me a PM and maybe we can work out a deal/maybe a trade of some sort.

Thanks for the Congrats!

Ken

I'm not sure. But I was thinking Roosevelt dimes 46-68 or Peace dollars.

Congrats! Now on the the next quest. The Roosevelts are fun and can be done on a budget. Peace dollars are more expensive....but they are so beautiful......enjoy.

I still have the early proofs needed to finish mine (50-53) ... Congrats MINT_MARQ!

Oh, I'm also looking for a 1953-S in MS-65FBL ... got any extras laying around?
