<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 131375, member: 4552"]Actually I did purchase more by quantity than quality. One of the things I did with a Whitman Classic Album was to add enough pages to put two complete sets of Merc Dimes in the binder. However, the blank pages contained more than the required coins for Mercurys. So I purchased numerous Roosevelt Dimes to add to the last part of the pages to fill it and make it look complete. They were all MS 63 or 65 and from 1946 to 1955 including D and S mint coins. I did the same thing with Jefferson NIckels but just added one page at the end for Proofs and I purchased some of them also. Then there is the last page in my Lincoln Cent Album that contains all proofs from 1950 to about 72. I bought a few of these also.</p><p>This may all sound dumb and it probably is but that's where my money goes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
