I finally did something I was never able to do as a collector, I finished a series! 32 piece Eisenhower with proofs (not the hardest to complete I know, but you have to start somewhere!).

That is the first of my childhood sets to be completed. Counting the time away from collecting its roughly 1 year per coin.

Now I only have to complete Lincolns (Wheats and Memorial), Jeffersons, Roosevelts, Liberty nickels, Buffalo nickels, Franklin Halves, Mercury dimes, Washington quarters 1932-1998, and Indian Head pennies.

And I started Morgans.

This could take a while. And Peace dollars are nice.

Congrats on your Eisenhower Collection! I'm starting on 3 Cent Silver Pieces for the Dansco Album, and I am going to start on Barber quarters soon.

Congrats, I need to upgrade my set. It is all BU and proof, but I have to replace a few uglies I bought sight-unseen.

Completion of a set or type is a great feeling. I know feeling when I finished my State Quarters (with help from my fellow members ) Congrats on your accomplishment

Hmmm... Here is my first attempt to (1) take pictures of coins, and (2) post them. I need to read some on coin photography and make a better setting. Shows the holes filled at least

By coincidence, I finished the same Album just last week. Actually, I was working in conjunction with the grandkids, and the Album is their's. Point is, it's finished.

Now they want to work on SBA's. They already have a few, so we'll get a Dansco Album and see how long it takes.

Well done I have been jumping all over the place collecting but now finally desided to do what you are doing and get albums and complete these.

I have been working on a Kennedy half album should be done soon and I will then see how it feels.

Just got a complete cent album and nickel album will start on those when the Kennedy is done.

Oh have four complete State Quarter albums they will be complete when the final Territories come out this year.

Anyway well done looks like a very god set to pass onto someone.
