[QUOTE="midtncoin, post: 3098204, member: 89569"]I was at my LCS today and my eye caught the shelf full of cardboard albums. I haven't filled up one of those since I was a teenager (I keep my coins in 2x2's or tubes today). So since I'm avidly roll searching these days, I decided to try something. I picked up the Lincoln Memorial/Shield cents folders (two of them) and the Jefferson Nickel 1962-date (two of them) and, just using coins I find while roll-hunting, I'm going to see how many rolls I have to search to complete the folder. I'm not worried about time, just the number of rolls. I'm anticipating that the nickels should be fairly easy as even the 68-S through 70-S are fairly easy to find. For cents, the S-mints might take a little while longer. My one rule is that I can't back-fill with existing stuff. I must start from scratch. So I'm going to go way out on a limb and predict 1 box of rolls for nickels but 2 boxes for cents. I'll update this thread either upon completion or when I reach my predictions and have failed! :)[/QUOTE]
