I made an album to show what coins circulated during the years. At each change in design, I made a new row. I am still working on after 1975 because there are sooooo many changes. If you guys have any ideas, let me know. I might try to take better picture if anyone wants me to.

    That's a different type set approach. Nice!

    Just wondering about 42 - 45 war nickels and 43 Lincoln steel cent. I know, same design but different composition. I like the album.

    I tried to do design only changes or I would have run out of pages and the album can't fit anymore.

    Nice work. Looks really pro. Ever think about getting into the custom album business? For hire, of course. I like your year set concept a lot.

    I corrected the bicentennial coins because the 1776-1976 were minted starting in 1975. I also need help with the last page. No more pages fit in the book and there are way too many changed to continue the same format. Any ideas?

    You could start a "Reverse Proof / West Point Mint" era. Or something along the lines of enhanced finishes for minor denominations.

    I'm keeping it to coins issued for circulation only.
