    Not really bragging, but I got my three 2010 silver proofs yesterday (Sat).

    Nice! I bet they look great! Why isn't anybody posting pics, though?

    2010 Silver Proof

    This scan is not great, (could'nt upload the reverse for some reason) but gives you an idea of what you get for $ 57.00.
    I do not like the frosted look, especially of the washingtons. I have better looking strikes on the state quarters.

    The pic makes me chop at the bit. I can't wait to get mine. I like Lincoln's face-forward image on the dollar.

    No, I store the boxes and display them in 2 pocket sleeves, they are made by BCW and I ordered them on line.

    Does anyone have this Dansco album for flat-packs or am I the only one at CT?

    Although I have every mint set from 1964 to 1996, I decided to put a lowball bid on an online auction (not ebay) for a group of 31 mint sets. The description read "Mint sets from 1970 to 1993 with some duplicates". So I put a $50 bid on it. I put insane low bids on every online auction with coins I can find.
    Then a week later I get the email that i won! This is the second time this has happened in the last 3 weeks! So with shipping and buyers premium, it was $67 delivered.

    To my surprise it also included the 1976 silver uncirculated set!

    Also, I know I'll catch some flak for this, but since I now have so many mint sets, I decided to buy my first Dansco albums and break apart every mint set. So i bought Lincoln, Jefferson, Roosevelt, Kennedy, Washington, SBA, Eisenhower (all with proofs) and some for earlier coins (mercury, buffalo) and put the coins in the book. Some will say that I just lowered the value of my coins, however I enjoy them much better than packing away all the mint sets to sit in a box in my basement. :)

    I just hope that you kept the old Mint packaging.

    I dont like the idea but they are your coins.
    Did you see the Dansco #7092 above? They can remain in their packaging and you can view them that way too?
    But it is up to you.
    Show us a pict when your done if you would.

    Re: Dansco folders -- What do you use to prevent scratching the coins when the plastic slide is put in place? I've been afraid to use the Dansco for that reason.
