***Hello, fellow coin fans. I recently purchased a new Dansco #7100 album, which is for Lincoln Cents from 1909-2009. I opted for the business strike only album, as I don't generally like mucking around with proofs.
A couple of goals I had for this album;
1. Have a set of coins that has many, many coins in it and takes a long time to assemble and have fun doing so. Probably years.
2. Find as many coins as I can in circulation from random finds/bank roll hunting, keeping myself on a budget.
Lincoln Cents, so far, seem to logically fit that criteria. Also, I already had about 10 or so wheat cents, and I was looking for a long term storage option for them besides 2x2 holders. The #7100 album wasn't available until recently, so I jumped it and purchased one.
That said, I know there are coins that I will most likely never obtain from circulation, if at all, namely the king of the series, the 1909 S VDB.
I picked up 20 dollars worth of penny rolls yesterday, and had many surprisingly good finds. This is a far cry from my last time that I tried penny roll hunting, where I literally found NOTHING!
Nothing like a brand spanking new Dansco album! Oh yeah!
First page! I only have one measly coin. I did, however, find this in circulation.
Skip to the third page, since I don't have any coins on the second unfortunately.
Was pretty happy yesterday to find this 46-S!
Found most of these yesterday.
This page is pretty interesting, with a variety of different looking coins.
This 1968-D is also really nice.
I was somehow able to find coins here that matched pretty well IMO
Same here
Last page. I think I am going to get into the shield cents as well.
A few goodies
I think this is the large date, but I'm not entirely sure?
Another I'm not entirely sure about
Another date I was surprised to find in circulation, and from a random change container no less!
Also another of the same kind of find! Was definitely surprised by this!
This 1939 was the earliest dated cent I found yesterday.
That's it for now! I do have a few coins coming that I purchased from
ebay. 1909, 1916 and a 1916-S. This was decidedly before I decided I was going to try to find all coins in circulation. I know I will have to purchase some other ones down the line, mostly on the first page most likely.
Enjoy! Let me know what you think. And also, my apologies if I put this in the wrong section of the forums! Move if needed!
