The latest addition was the 1918S in 63 at auction...don't know how many more I'll be able to afford?

    1975? Hmmmm, nothing noteworthy from 75 in my collection. Never hear or see much from 1975. Not much of a banner year from where I sit. Look forward to seeing what others might have.

    [[Never hear or see much from 1975]]

    I was actually going to say, "HA HA...1975...the year with practically no change!"

    Congrats on your milestone! Slow and steady wins the race, but it's best not to think of it as a race ;)

    Congrats. Walkers are one of my favorite designs.

    This particular "race" started in 1983...when I was in high school!

    Well, this pic is not from 1975 but this muscle car was my parents family car from 71 - 78 including of course 1975. Yep, I still have her.

    Nice Chevelle, @Tramp!
    396 or the whole hog 454?

    No pics of anything from 1975 - I do have pics of a MS 18S walker though - but this is RichR's accomplishment and thread. I'm not even sure what percentage of my set are in MS. I know that I'm presently lacking two for the complete set.

    @RichR... Congratulations on your progress with the WLH set... Beautiful coins and a set is awesome to look at. I would have to dig through my change jars to find something from 1975, so will have to skip that part. Cheers, RickO

    On the contrary, Google is not your friend.

    1975 AMC Pacer - crappy cars and crappy clad coinage from that year.......

    Eighteen63...that faux Ike looks pretty good...better than most of the real ones!

    On a related note...a 1975 silver Ike might have been a hot item...for lack of most other coins dated 1975!

  • CladiatorCladiator Posts: 18,073 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Me, I'm from 1975.

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    @alaura22... I have not seen his set, I was speaking of WLH sets in general. IMO a truly beautiful American coin, and I have seen other sets, so I know how attractive they are. Cheers, RickO

  • RichRRichR Posts: 3,870 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I never gave it too much thought...but the 1975 standard proof set really was lame! I mean...you couldn't strike a collector version with six 1975 dated proof coins?
