Outstanding. Myself, I'm only the 1976s silver proof from complete in a Whitman, I also added the 1990 proofs which fit just as snug. I only wish I'd have added a few golden toners as you did.

Beautiful set. I too love collecting Eisenhower coins. I have always liked their size. Years back I just bought a couple hundred on ebay. Then a year later I turned them in for cash. Boy was I sorry after that. Since then I have been trying to add to my collection. Nice set!

Eventually, I will most likely fill the remaining spots with some of those cool die varieties. Not at the top of my list right now though.

@ericgreen: Beautiful set! Definitely something of which to be proud! Congrats!
One possible addition: Since you have the US Mint's silver Eisenhower Presidential medal, you might consider getting one of the Mint's small bronze versions as well (same design, different metallic composition).

Nicely done. The Eisenhower presidential silver medal will be along before you know it, so save a space for that one.

Quote: The Eisenhower presidential silver medal will be along before you know it, so save a space for that one. I was assuming it would be the same design they used for the medal in the C&C set.  This is the one included in ericgreen's album and is the same design used on the bronze one mentioned by commens. I do not see how they could or why they would use a new design. However, a new design would be nice to have.
