This set is based on the 7070 album with a few modifications here and there.

I try to do this once a year or so. I am a little late this time but here it is.
I like to post everything here. It's a good way to go back and look at my progress over the years.
I can see what coins have changed and how my photography has changed.

My goal is to have everything in roughly the same condition .
I like matched sets but I think you need a little variation to keep it interesting.

I still need a few coins. Several could be found going through some bags of stuff if I ever get time.
Some I am not extremely happy with and some are there forever.

As always, comments are welcomed.

    I see a couple of issues with my post. Will try to sort it out.
    Difficult to make a post this long with no uh-ohs.

    Wow! @Flatwoods You have amazing consistency with your set. Took a bit to load, but worth the wait. Thanks!

    This is one of the reasons I do this.
    Excellent idea and one I will work on. I have been replacing coins with better dates occasionally.
    I have looked at better date Morgans in the 30-35 range, just haven't pulled the trigger.
    It would be an excellent opportunity to add a CC mint mark though.

    Thanks AUandAG !

    Beautiful set!! It helps me see the changes in design. Since I only really study seated quarters, this was nice to review! Thanks for posting!!

    It is not that life is short, but that you are dead for so very long.
