    All Eisenhower dollars in the album! Yeah, it's not a long series, but still, feels like an accomplishment!

    Also filled the 3 unlabeled spots at the end with "extra credit" Eisenhower dollars:

    1990-W Eisenhower centennial silver dollar
    1991-1995-D (actually minted and issued in 1993) World War 2 silver dollar (quote by Eisenhower on the reverse)
    2013-W 5 Star Generals silver dollar (with Eisenhower & Marshall)

    Pictures, as promised (apologies if they're not the best pictures; taking pictures of objects that are shiny metal is a serious pain to do lol):

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    Completing any set, even if it is short, is an accomplishment!

    I really like the clever idea of your extra 3 commems. That's a nice touch to round out the set.

    always feels great to finish an album, and size means nothing.. heck my $.20 album only has space for 10 coins total and I doubt it will ever be finished :D Now your addition of the commems is a perfect finishing touch to a very very nice set :D Well Done!

    Congratulations. Great eye appeal to the set. I have a few completed sets and it feels good to accomplish that.

    I finished Indian cents and Peace dollars in albums, once. Maybe Franklins too- I forget. Can’t recall if I ever did Ikes. I think so. I did all the Lincoln cents except the 1909-S VDB and the 1922 Plain.

    I'm just 3 short on finishing Lincoln cents: 1909-S VDB, 1914-D, 1922 plain. Someday, maybe lol.

    Have also finished Jefferson nickels, SBA dollars, and Kennedy half dollars. By type, I've finished presidential dollars, state quarters, DC & Territories quarters, National Park quarters, and American Women quarters.

    Working on Franklin half dollars and realistically I think that would be the cheapest and easiest to finish, among those I haven't finished yet.

    Also working on buffalo nickels, Mercury dimes, and Roosevelt dimes (Roosevelt dimes only need the silver ones; all the clad ones are complete). Those will take a while lol.

    Someday hope to finish my Dansco 7070 type set; only one I still need is a Seated Liberty dollar with motto.

    That was always my favorite album collection. I completed it twice.

    Yes, it sounds like bragging though. But, this is what 75+ years will do.

    Oh, and also working on Canadian small cents lol. Almost none of the ones I have are bought; they were mostly found in US circulation. Going to be a lot harder to find them that way I suppose. Need to find another source of them I guess beyond directly buying specific issues.

    With the price of silver and gold so high, Ike's and cents - U.S. and Canadian - are good alternatives. It's been said before, but nice problem free Ike's are a challenge with those big, open fields and all.

    Nice looking set. For my Ike set, I included the '71 and '72 sub-types. I've digitally labeled the pictures of my Dansco pages...

    Fantastic job @Troodon, well done! I also love the way you filled out the blanks with excellent examples. Good luck with the next project.

    I would recommend getting a small label maker to make the notations in the album. I recently purchased one on Amazon for $45, just used it for the first time the other day and it works great! Got the idea from @dwhiz

    Amazon.com : Brother P-Touch PTD220 Home/Office Everyday Label Maker | Prints TZe Label Tapes up to ~1/2 inch White : Office Products

    You can see the one I did at the very bottom, for the 55 doubled die. It took an hour or so to read the directions and do a couple tests, but I really like the results.
