<p>[QUOTE="johnny54321, post: 376124, member: 13342"]Very cool Jonathon! I am currently embarking on the SAME project you are. Let me warn you, this project IS addictive. One thing I am learning is to just buy one coin at a time, but make sure it is a HIGH QUALITY one. I started with a VF minimum, but now am up to XF......so I have been upgrading all of my F-VF fillers. I am still no where near done. Also remember that about half the album can be filled very cheaply with high grade coins. That part will go by fast! It's when you get into the 19th century that you'll start cringing at the prices. Its so easy to comprimise and get low-grade, harshly cleaned, damaged coins, etc.....and I still do occasionally if I find a good looking coin at a good price....but the higher quality you can go, the better. Good luck! And please post pictures of additions to your album when you get them!! And yes, the owner of the coins in the site listed is going to be hard for anyone to be on par with.....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
