    Very nice additions, Paul-62....High grade Silver Quarters and a Silver Proof Kennedy---but I seem to see finger print smudges on the proof and those oils can eat right into the coins surface...ruining the proofs' 'natural' gem-like appearance.

    The coins aren't newps but the folder is. I had a bunch of 1960 and earlier Jeffies laying around from CRHing, so today I figured I'd go get the 38-61 Whitman and see how much I could fill in. I think it's a pretty good start.

    I decided to insert all the Denver and San Fran coins with the reverse showing since the MM is on that side.

    I just received a few 'common' high grade modern late dates and I already had a few early examples for my replacement 'Type Collection' but nothing extraordinary for the 'newest acquisitions'.........except a few budget examples of scarcer type 'Ancients': Antonia-daughter of Mark Anthony; Drusus-son of Tiberius; and Hostilian and Macrianus-late Roman caesars and emperors....a continuing effort on my part to complete an old Roman Emperor portrait collection.
