I expect all of us will eventually arrive at the same point......filling "Proof holes", or staring at empty holes. Glad to see you "cracked em'" !
If you did not have these Sets to crack.....would you have pursued the individual coins you needed one at a time, or just went out and bought the Sets anyway for the other coins and the other albums that will be made ?
Seems to be a good decision !

hmmmm.....having the "Sets"...... or having the completed albums.....or having BOTH ?
It'd be nice to have both ! ...

I know I'll be money WAAAAAAYYYYYY behind in the long run.......but I intend on putting together a Proof Presidential dollar album.....and have been buying a Proof Set each year for those. This future Set will certainly never be worth what it costs me to put together, but it will be good practice for "crackin'" certainly ! ...
I've yet to crack a Set (of any kind) .......

My plan is --> If I can't buy a bunch of proofs at one time (getting the best price, shipping, etc), I will buy proof sets. Right now I'm only filling my Jefferson Dansco, but will save the others for future need.
