After 5 years, I finally plugged the last hole tonight with a 1949S...to complete the set...all white in MS65FBL!

Post something collectible with Ben Franklin...other than a half dollar!

    Now do the walkers and let us know when that is finished. Or come forward and get all the Kennedy’s... You do realize that this coin addiction never actually ends, right?
    I get asked all the time when my collection will be “finished” .... well, probably never!

    [[Now do the walkers and let us know when that is finished. Or come forward and get all the Kennedy’s... You do realize that this coin addiction never actually ends, right?]]

    Already have every single Kennedy ever minted...all in proof or MS...and all in original Mint packaging. Also have a hand-assembled set in Dansco albums.

    Also have three quarters of the Walkers...all slabbed from MS63-66.

    AND also have most Barber halves...thanks to dad and grandpa...but they're well circulated...so I never got around to upgrading them...yet.

    But yes, those last few Walkers are killers...so I'll let my kids worry about filling those holes!

    may the fonz be with you...always...

    Are you sure? I bet 1 coin isn’t MS65 FBL,,,,, 1953-S???
    If it is then I am impressed!
