    Looks like a very nice, high grade set.

    Pictures really don't do the coins justice- a bit dark. Tough to photograph multiple coins and get them right.

    Excellent collection. You should be proud, as I know I would be.

    Outstanding! And they got it right with "VAR" instead of "TYPE."

    And welcome!!!

    Nice! Funny that the holder went with the D/S at the end there.

    I think they were trying to make it a little more affordable as a set. There's no 16/16, 18-D/17, 35 DDR-001, or three legged. Those would have put it out of the reach for most collectors. Of course, this could have been made when the D/S was first discovered. It was a BIG deal back then. And they had two otherwise blank spots to fill, too.

    Really neat set!
    Did you 'upgrade' the screws (from plastic to aluminum) on your own? If so, that is smart.

    Welcome. Thank you for posting a very timely picture.
    I am changing directions in collecting. Leaving ase’s and not going to get any future new morgans or peace dollars. Buffaloes 🐃 are one of the new coins. Now I have a really nice mental picture of how they can look. I am glad there are holders for the medium price collectors who probably can’t afford the rare issues. 😉

    @Texican1 .... Welcome aboard...Forgot to say that when I viewed your IHC set... Now you show an outstanding set of Buffalo nickels... Really nice.... I like them in the capitol holder... really shows well. I believe I like this better than albums. Super achievement, congratulations... Cheers, RickO

    Very, very nice . I’m totally impressed with this set.
    Congratulations 🍾

    Very nice. About identical to the one I have put in an old LOC album.
