I begin the long slow & systematic process of breaking open some proof sets for the individual denominational coin albums (in Lighthouse Quadrum Intercept 2x2 snaps tites) and some sets for preservation. The ultimate goal is sets/individual proof coins based around the PCGS 1936-Present list as a guide.
