I've been on the hunt for this scarce (rare, really) Continental Line (Dansco) Canada Type Set album for awhile now.
I am happy to have finally picked this one up:

It would be wonderful if they were dollars. They'd all be unique.

My newest acquisition may not seem quite so much, it is a PCGS MS66 RD 1978 Lincoln Cent struck in Denver. It is my 341st graded Lincoln Cent. To get to this purchase has taken more than six years, since early 2019 when I began to build a complete Lincoln Cent mint state and proof collection covering 1930 through 2024 (2019 back then). This is the final coin for the collection. I would never have imagined a 1978-D would be the last one. It has been one tough date and mint mark to find.

Bit of a slow year for me. I did run into this Carson gal a little while back.

@erscolo Congrats on finishing your set! That's a huge set to complete, too - 18 boxes of 20 by my calculation if that 341st coin get its own box of 20.
It's odd how some common dates can be difficult to find in nice grades.

If the flip side of going slow is that this is the sort of coin you buy when you do make a move, I think I love your pace.

I was enjoying your Half Dollars. Was in Emergency Room with pnemonia. The appreciation was there, just perhaps not the whole functional mind!

I'm glad you're feeling better. Pneumonia can be nasty. My brother is a hardcore outdoorsman but is susceptible to it and has become severely ill several times while on long-hike hunting and fishing trips in Colorado. The last time it occurred, he wound up unconscious in the ICU for three days. He'd be dead if his hunting partner hadn't gone to the hotel to look for him.
To celebrate your recovery, here's the top pop (out of 5 known) 74-S WB-5. It's NGC's plate coin for the date, yet NGC failed to recognize it was a new DM in their discussion of 74-S die marriages.

Barberian,
Thank you for the good wishes! What a lovely Half, with that luster and toning! The fact that it is the best of 5 known and misidentified by NGC, just adds more dimensions to this picture!

I’m pleased to share this attractive Semi-Prooflike 1897-S $20 Gold Liberty acquired yesterday at the TNA Coin Show in Conroe, Texas (North side of Houston).
IMO the surface Reflectivity seems very close to qualifying for the Prooflike designation.
I’ve been inactive regarding collecting for a while, and have decided to consolidate a portion of my collection to acquire some higher quality coins.
Was able to make an advantageous trade for this coin.
