I appreciate all the positive feedback! Since this is relating to nickels, I put all my Buffalo nickels into 2x2 holders. I am thinking about also making my own customized album for them. This way I don't have to worry about any coins that aren't obtainable due to budget constraints.

Thank you! I am now working on multiple different sets, namely another Jefferson set and a Kennedy half dollar business strike set. I may add Buffalo nickels to the equation as well.

you can still put the Buffalo nickels into a Dansco album - a 7000 numbered album I think - it is designed to take 2x2's

If you keep going for new sets, you can start a nice Dansco library - here is mine:  But another user here (bg_in_oc) has an incredible set of Dansco albums. check out his here: http://goccf.com/t/467882 - but I warn you it is a long topic - best to start at the last page and work back..

Thank you! That looks awesome! Yes, that was my plan. I am looking into that Dansco 2x2 stock album. They are pretty ridiculously priced right now on Amazon, though, so I am waiting for them to go down.

I have it combined into an album with two blank pages each for Indian Head cents and Mercury dimes.

Congrats on a beautiful album set.  This is a set you will always look back on and enjoy collecting coins. Coin collecting is always about how you get there and what you go through to achieve your goal. Nice album and be proud of it.

Thanks, peeps! I also received my Dansco 2x2 coin stock book. Pretty decent for storing my Buffalo nickels. I may have to add a few other sets as well. Not sure yet. I used to have a Susan B Anthony set stored in a folder like this back in the day, since I basically had every coin except for that super expensive type ll proof from 1981. Back when I used to have this set, it was like 300-500 dollars. The price may have gone down a little since then.

Very nice Humanist - cannot wait to see the rest of your collection - and it apparently inspires others to complete theirs as well
