[QUOTE="Murphy45p, post: 3104461, member: 96005"]New here to the forum. I really enjoy reading other's experiences with this type set. I've stalked this forum for a while before joining, and the information I've gleaned has been very helpful and probably saved me a lot of money too! This forum started me on the 7070 album. I started off trying to fill holes on a budget of $50/coin. Still my goal, but I began by simply trying to fill all the holes with any grade. I started getting some grade discrepancies, so now I've settled on grades in the 20 to 45 range for the older coins, with AG grades sufficing for the moment on the old copper coins.

Good luck with yours and keep posting pictures please! I'll try to include some pictures somewhere of my set. That capped bust half of yours is a beauty![/QUOTE]
