    Need to plug some holes in some albums and folders. Especially the modern non-circulating stuff like Native American dollars and I’ll have to buy GHW bush dollars for my pres dollar album. Also need some lincoln wheat cents and mercury dimes, wash quarters, etc.

    For under $25 I'd probably go with a storage box like Intercept or a book. I don't think I spent much more than $25 on 4th edition Mega Red book.

    You gotta up that $25 to $2500 to get some interest here....

    For the most part, you're probably right. i still think there must be some of us out here that don't have that kind of budget for coins. Getting a couple good responses, at least! :smiley:

    I’d say, seriously, for $25 I’d find a killer eye appeal Indian Head Cent.

    Something I don't have much of, at least not better than VG! I think if it were for actual coins, I'd have to pick it out and have my loved-ones just pay for it. Don't want them picking coins for me! LOL!

    I'm not a Kennedy collector at all. May I ask what the significance of the 1994-D is? Maybe there is none, and that's your point! I have no idea! :wink:

    I got mine early...wife knew I had a big hole in my collection...the 95w. So for a combine Christmas and 20th Anniversary present she green lighted (from a BST member) the purchase of the 10th Anniversary set that included the 95W.
    AWESOME. Love that woman.

    I recently removed my Kennedy collection from 2x2's and placed them in an album. I've collected them since 1964. Well......the only one I was missing is the 1994-D. How did that happen? Anyway, the old OCD is kicking in and I must get one. Soon! That empty hole is bugging the hell out of me!
