Only thing....as someone may notice.....in this Harris folder where it says "Other American Nickels", there are spaces for 8 nickels. I will put some Shield nickels, Buffalo nickels, Liberty "V"'s, and some 3CN's  .............to make it more appropiate in that area. Two of each will give me the eight spots there that are currently filled with the Jefferson's.Of course I'll flop up another pic once this is done....  But, I certainly still view it as "complete" as it is though !

Nice set. Now for the nitpick. In 2006 you have a reverse showing in a hole marked "Obverse", etc.

Eaglefoot, was that the freebie folder from the RedBook coupon? I have one of those, just missing one or two Phillys so you may have prompted me to finish mine as well

DL20K....Quote: I need to complete the series of Other American Nickels as well. When was that series minted? 2007? Or if you meant when was the "Westward Journey" Series minted.... That was 2004-2006.Biokemist6....Quote:Eaglefoot, was that the freebie folder from the RedBook coupon? I have one of those, just missing one or two Phillys so you may have prompted me to finish mine as well Yup !....I believe same folder, but not likely through The Redbook, not sure though... it was gifted to me by my Mother !..  ....I didn't realize, though, just how hard difficult it would be for me to fill it !.......I thought it might be a quick and easy one.....
