 Gotta give it to Profilecoins for that. So far, they've sent me some really nice dimes. Speaking of which, I also recently ordered that pesky 1946-D from them.  Curious question for other folks who have done this series or just in general... For the 1965, 66 and 67 Roosevelt dimes... Should I just put regular UNC business strikes in, or should I go the SMS route? Obviously, the album doesn't specify. If I do both, I may possibly do the others on a blank page down the line... Possibly.

I put the Unc business strikes in mine since it wasn't marked. I eventually will get a blank page for the SMS so I can label it with the SMS designation. But I'm the kind of person that has to have both variations

I went the SMS route because I bought SMS sets to fill the SMS holes in the Kennedy 8166 album. For me, it was the only way I could be sure that I had SMS examples in those holes and I had to put the other coins somewhere.  So, if you are doing the 8166 and you end up buying SMS sets, do the same. If not, regular coins would be fine.

Yeah, honestly, I just ordered whatever I could find! I don't care which honestly. Lol. I added recently the 65, 66 and 67 coins.  I also ordered some more coins today. I really wanted to get down to my coin store, but on Saturday's, they are quite busy and chaotic... So I just said the heck with it and bought some on ebay.  Luckily, all the coins I ordered are from the same seller so they'll all come in at once.

Looking good. At least with ebay, you can usually find what your are looking for....sometimes too many things.

Very nice. Only 5 silver 62-64 ones and you could finish that one page off

Thanks, guys! Seamonkey, yes! I do need to a replace a few of the nasty looking proofs on that page, though. I haven't been too active much on here lately. A lot going on in my personal life right now at the moment.  I've also noticed a good number of the earlier proofs, like the silver ones, from sort of the late 50's and early 60's, are basically the same price as silver business strikes from the ebay seller I use.  I may have to acquire some of those eventually.
