My Dansco type set is complete!
Meltdown
Posts: 9,068 ✭✭✭✭✭
It's been filled for a few years now. Every once in a while I upgrade a piece here & there.
I like this set mosty because even though the holes are filled, the project is never really completed.
I was looking through it yesterday and snapped a few shots from my phone in just natural sunlight and it seemed to capture the look pretty well so I went ahead and shot front & back page shots mainly for documentation, but also to share here.
Here they are...

Fantastic set & completing it looks great.
The Bi-Centennial trio are super boring in my opinion. I may look for more interesting examples. I don't have any other album plans at the moment. I've done BU Franklins twice now. Mostly finished with UNC/AU quarters. I've done a Walking Liberty album mostly from 90% silver buys out of dealer trays...
I still really like Morgan dollars and about a hundred other shiny things...

Slowly buying those in slabs... I still need a $3 gold piece, St. Guadens and a nice $10 Eagle.
Also, I can't find a dansco gold page anywhere. On ebay, they are stupid expensive.

Nice set! You have some killer Bust and Seated material in there too. I completed my 7070 some time back and it really felt good to accomplish that, plus the heft of picking up the album feels nice too. A gold page would be cool to add too, but not when that page costs more than some coins!
One day, I'll post pics of my 7070 too.

Nice set! I always enjoy seeing these!
Any reasoning for why some spots have the reverse facing forward?
Really nice set!

Nothing more than I liked looking at the different design on the front page. For example, 2 Buffalo nickles facing obverse up look pretty much like the same coin in two spots.

Well done - looks like nice original coins, with some very nice toners in there!
A really nice set. As @Walkerguy21D stated there are some nice toners.
Lovely set! 👍
Good idea taking the slides out for the pictures
Next, cut some little shims out of safeflip plastic and cure that rotation issue 😉

Nice set.
Very nice and good job on those photos. I just need a seated dollar w/motto and trade dollar to complete my 7070.

Nice looking set you put together there, congrats.
Great set, thanks for sharing. I'm down to just one coin in mine.
Beautiful set. I especially love the Jefferson and Morgan's toning (along with others).
How do you determine which coin gets displayed reverse side up? For example, usually if this is
done it is the type 1 Buffalo that is reverse showing- you on the other hand show the type 2. Interesting.
Really nice. Well done!

Oh my! What a wonderful looking 7070 eye appeal from start to the finish great job!!!
Great looking set. Have shelved the idea of a gold page on mine, but would like to get the bicentennial and modern pages for my album.
One of the best I've seen.
Felicidades!
Looks great!

That is a beautiful sight, WOW!!
Congratulations is in order here. An amazing accomplishment and all of the coins look as though you picked them out one at a time which I’m sure you did. A GORGEOUS set my coin brother!
Way to go👌🍾
Thank you all for the kind words. It's funny, like I mentioned up top, it's a project that is never really finished. There's more than a few I'd like to swap out for another example... For now, I can kick back, be patient and wait for the right coin to come along.
