Hi All, Here's a not-so-exciting update of how my Type Set is going. I got bored today and went to a coin shop to fill in a couple of holes....
I arrived home late last night, no thanks to a huge electrical storm in Chicago. I love thunderstorms, but not while packed like a sardine on a...
Thanks for the offer. Looks like my day is going to packed tomorrow, and I travel home on top of it all. I'll see if I have time to wander by.
This 7070 will take a while to be sure. I haven't added anything at all in a while due to life getting in the way of things (as wonderful as they...
Hi Everyone, it's been a while since I've posted. Maybe because it's been a while since I've made an addition to my Dansco 7070. While in Boston,...
Yes, perhaps I need more education when it comes to circulated coins. Otherwise I may drive myself crazy getting too hung up on these little things.

This arrived yesterday. Here's a big pic: [img]
the lucky sixpence arrived today! [img]
Hi, I've just recently started putting together a Dansco 7070. I haven't experienced any "cracker's remorse" yet, mainly because I only have two...
I ask because in my type set I want circulated coins of the dollars. It's not an issue of money but appearance in an album.
Do any of you have a nicely worn silver Ike? Maybe an XF or maybe even a VF?
Thanks, ksparrow!
I only have one mercury dime and it's a wartime dime. I picked it up raw at the last ANA show in Ft Worth. [img] It's nothing special,...
OK I showed her an Irish sixpence on an eBay BIN and she loved it. For the record we're not superstitious at all, but it's still fun to follow...
I think I'm going to have to go with an Irish sixpence. Everyone knows that coins are an important part of my life so some sort of sixpence is...
