Thanks everyone and thank you just carl. I'm using the Dansco 8100 which covers all of the LMCs and LWCs. Including proof only issues. Dansco makes a separate album, 8104 for just the LSCs and proofs. The 8100 only has the space for the 1922 plain. No holes for either the 55 or 72 doubled dies. As far as the 1909-S VDB grade I'd be happy around AU-55 or so if the price is right. I've decided that I'm not going to get that particular coin online. I'm going to go to one of the many Chicago area coin shows for it. I recall that you frequent a few of them. I think you get there early for free coffee and donuts.

Nice, them XF-AU Wheaties are hard to not love especially the 1914 S. When I filled my 1909-41 book it felt like a new pair of sneakers " soft and sweet". Good luck on the 09 S vdb and 14 D lots of choices to behold. Chafes I cracked out a 14 D, and 22 plain to plug them holes glad someone else has also. Didn't faze me a bit, I use a towel and bowieknife one moderate swoop and the deed is done. Surprisingly the slabs I whacked were: PCGS "like butter" NGC "wood" and ANACS old small holders "concrete". I feel like I just confessed to a felony :)

The ones you breakout, do you take pictures of them in their slabs first?

Have to admit that the thought never crossed my mind. Bad call on my part? Between my 8100 and 7070 I've freed probably a dozen by now. TPG holders and numbers long gone. I do mark next to the date in my albums with a small dot sticker if it was broken out of a holder. My kids know that. If they ever wanted to resubmit them someday after I'm gone more power to them.

I use my Leatherman. I use the pliers to crack up the head of the holder then the knife blade I slip between the halves and twist. They snap apart.

Yep, been talking pictures of the slabs, attaching the barcodes and keeping them in the back of the Dansco's, in a clear plastic sleeve. Not so much for resubmitting but so the kids have some type of reference point after I'm long gone and they eventually end-up in your collections. .

I cannot remember when it started for all NGC slabs, but if you kept the labels most of your NGC cents will have photos at the link I posted earlier (just change the cert and grade numbers).
