    In answer to your questions:

    1) Only upgrade the ones in your album if thay bother you or you feel thay do not fit with the overall grade you want to collect.

    2) The black spots are likly carbon nothing to be done about those, be sure to handle the coins on the edge no the surface to not have the fingerprints.

    3) Post a thread on the bst forum, list what coins your looking to buy. Someone here will have what you need.

    I've decided to stop everything at 1964, hence I have a complete set of Lincolns 65-present all hand picked from proof and mint sets that I will be liquidating.

    just on the off-chance anyone is looking for some
