[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1549749, member: 75105"]So I have decided for my 1st album, I'm going to choose the Roosevelt dime. Reasons for this: 1. Cheap. I can find the silver ones for $2.50-$3.00 each. Even if I budget $15 a month, that's still 5 to 6 silver dimes. 2. There are not that many keys. The 49-S, the 1955, 1955-D, 1955-S and 1996-W. Even at that, they are not expensive. 3. BU examples are not that hard to find, VS mercury dimes, BU early date mercury dimes can get expensive. Last night I acquired my 1st. The 1957. Mintage of 161.4 Million. [IMG]http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/zz257/Phototaker_2010/2012-10-10161625.jpg[/IMG] Also, for those that do the albums, do you collect everything and leave it as is, or do you routinely try to upgrade the album by adding better coins?[/QUOTE]
