I will definitely keep you all updated on my proofs. I just spent most of this months coin budget on some King George III shillings so it will probably be a little while before I can complete.

I was asked if I was going to keep them in slabs or put them in album. Following advice I received here I bid on a few graded coins so I could learn how to grade this series before I picked up anything in the "wild".I was planning to put an album together. I broke a few out but, although I am not in this for profit I decided not break out the more expensive and higher grade coins. If for some unfortunate reason I need to sell or when I'm gone my family can get best price for the coins. I put the rest in air-tites. I think aesthetically it would be nice to have them in an album however, I have learned to enjoy them as they are.

Wow, that's a really nice one. Which one you missing? That 1950 is quite expensive.

Here is my favorite Franklin in my collection... (the smudges are on the slab, not the coin.)
