[QUOTE="RonSanderson, post: 2509273, member: 77413"]Not long, really. About two months ago I saw a Dansco Lincoln set at my LCS - the folder that also has slots for the San Francisco proofs starting in 1975. The folder only ran up to 1991, so the original collector had filled in the blank slots with proofs. There were 1957-59, most from 61 on, and all from 75-91. I bought the 60 small and large dates, then filled back down from 56 to 51, and bought "decade" runs on eBay for the 90's, 2000's, and the 2009 bicentennial set of four (very cheap!!). I also had to pick up 73S and 74S that were missing. I really had a head start with the Dansco and the real body of the work was done by my anonymous predecessor. Here is one of his contributions that was a little cloudy in the folder, but I rinsed it, and it turned out to be a cameo with blue toning. (I think I posted this before).
