MrPink2018 Pillar of the Community United States 2456 Posts	Posted 12/06/2025 5:08 pm an update: Quote: squeezing more gold (and silver) from the streets was all I was able to accomplish this year (2024). ...and that's all I've managed to do this year. I'm hoping to get one last purchase in before 2026 arrives, though I'm not sure yet what it'll be or when. i'll aim for a bit of gold & a bit of silver, but my options are open. I may just go for all silver. we'll see as the remainder of the month (and year) plays out. Report this Post to the Staff

Franklin Proofs are quite lovely.

jk109e4 Valued Member United States 301 Posts	Posted 12/09/2025 6:26 pm I finished Kennedy half dollars including proofs up to 2018. I hope to score some recent clad and silver proof sets which will also fill out the last 3 years of my other core Dansco books, nickels, quarters, cents, etc. I am working myself backwards on proof quarters and nickels. I need 1938,1940, 1941, 1942 type II and 1950 in the nickels. I started my Standing Liberty quarter set. It is quite a challenge. I have all but the 1917 S Type II, 1919 D & S, 1921, 1923 S and the 1924 D & S. I've upgraded my three books of Lincoln's, Jefferson's, and Buffalos. I also wish to complete my collections with the 1909 S VDB, 1913 S Type 2 (non-Nic a dated) Buffalo, and 1916 D Merc. Good luck to all in their quest. Report this Post to the Staff

Well done. Quote: I also wish to complete my collections with the 1909 S VDB, 1913 S Type 2 (non-Nic a dated) Buffalo, and 1916 D Merc. I still need two of those three. I remember buying the 1913-S T2, it was a happy day. I also need a 1922 "plain" cent to fill that hole, so I guess we both need a trio!

jbuck Moderator United States 187446 Posts	Posted 12/15/2025 4:57 pm Since I am not expecting anything else to arrive, I am going to post my final report for 2025. 2025 Q4 Report 1. Fill the last three core Dansco album holes 7000: 1916-D Mercury dime—*Plenty of watching, but still no progress.* 8100: 1909-S VDB and 1922 "Plain" (no D)—*Plenty of watching, but still no progress.* 2. Buy whatever appeals to me from 2025 US Mint offerings Clad Proof Set—Complete American Women Quarters Silver Proof Set—Complete American Innovation $1 Coin Proof Set—Complete American Innovation $1 Coin Reverse Proof Set—*December 30th release, so I will not see it until 2026.* Uncirculated Coin Set—Complete—Coins placed in albums. The American Women Quarters Dansco has been completed! American Liberty 2025 Silver Medal—Complete 3. Add some Ike and WWII related coins from around the world. Added the 1994 France Eisenhower 100 Francs 4. Move my world coins from 2x2 holders (stored in 12 pocket Dansco pages) into various hole sized of standard Dansco pages—Kicking that can down the road to 2026.

dgwright Valued Member United Kingdom 51 Posts	Posted 12/16/2025 02:47 am Like Dearborn, I winged it. But I scored a 1686 Maundy threepence for $30, so I certainly can't complain! Report this Post to the Staff
