<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 2988227, member: 10461&quot;]I dunno what your angle will end up being, but I will mention that I recently started playing around with a <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/dansco-7172-silver-dollar-date-set-album.306940/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/dansco-7172-silver-dollar-date-set-album.306940/">Dansco #7172 Silver Dollar Date Set</a> album.&nbsp; This is a one-a-year album- so it&#039;s a date set <i>only</i> and not date-and-mintmark.&nbsp; This enables you to pursue the most common date for each year and sidestep some of the priciest things like the 1893-S Morgan and so on.&nbsp; It also includes one-a-year slots for the Peace dollars, Ikes, and Susan B. Anthony types.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s a very casual sideline for me and I&#039;m only collecting circulated coins in the Morgans and Peace dollars, but it&#039;s fun.&nbsp; I&#039;ll fill some of the album and then sell the partial set for someone else to finish later, when I move on to another sideline project.&nbsp; I thought this would be a good secondary project for me since in all my 41 years of collecting I never collected Morgan dollars aside from the occasional type coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>From what I read of your initial post, it sounds like something like this might be up your alley.&nbsp; In fact, if you wanted to take over my newly begun <a href="https://collectivecoin.com/lordmarcovan/gTViq5bJ98V7aC2sZspc" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://collectivecoin.com/lordmarcovan/gTViq5bJ98V7aC2sZspc" rel="nofollow">collection</a> - new album, coins and all - shoot me a message.&nbsp; <font size="3">(I&#039;m not really actively trying to sell it at this stage, but I <i>would</i> if somebody wanted it.)</font>&nbsp; As I mentioned, this is just a fun sideline diversion for me, so whenever I end up selling it to someone else to finish (whether that be now or two years from now), I will have had my fun with it and will move on to something else.&nbsp; <font size="3">(For me, there is <i>always</i> something else, which is why my <i>primary</i> collection is called &quot;The Eclectic Box&quot;.)</font></p><p><br /></p><p>I reckon I&#039;ll play with that album for a little while yet, and will have fun adding to it if nobody else takes it over in the meantime.</p><p><br /></p><p>I reckon you should do something like this.&nbsp; Go with nice original circulated examples.&nbsp; But if you did common dates in Mint State, I&#039;d go with slabs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
