<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Skyman, post: 8182177, member: 28299&quot;]Years ago I bought a Whitman from a LCS.&nbsp; The Whitman had a fairly complete set of 1946 - 1964 Roosevelts.&nbsp; A variety of the Roosevelts were toned up nicely.&nbsp; The price was right, so it was a WTF purchase.&nbsp; Over the years as kind of a backstop at coin shows where I wasn&#039;t finding anything else to purchase, I&#039;d look for raw Roosies to fill in the holes in the album.&nbsp; Needless to say, OCD kicked in, and I started buying Roosies to replace Roosies that IMO were not attractively toned up.&nbsp; It was an off and on again project, that I never completed, once all the actually missing date/mm were filled in.&nbsp; Over the next several weeks I&#039;ll be posting the coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m happy with the coins from 1954 - 1964, but from 1946 - 1953 there are some coins that I just left in there from the original album purchase that IMO are basically fillers for the date/mm.&nbsp; It would not surprise me if a couple of upgrade coins from the 1960&#039;s are AT, but I&#039;ve seen far worse AT jobs holdered in plastic from the two major TPGs.&nbsp; The original album contained BU/AU coins, so I&#039;ve continued buying coins in these grades.</p><p><br /></p><p>Years ago I posted the 1946 and 1947 Roosevelts, and the 1948&#039;s are mediocre. Here are the 1949 PDS for the Whitman album. The images are by Bob Campbell, and I think he did an excellent job.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1430624[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1430625[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1430626[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1430627[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1430628[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1430629[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
