Start of US 7070 Type Set
January 04, 2014, 07:19:13 AM
I have been trading coins with a friend in the US for serveral years now.

Towards the end of last year, he sent over a 7070 type set album with spots for 74 coins.

I finally got around to seeing how many coins that I have for the set and discovered that I could quickly fill 36 holes.  I probably will never complete the set since two of the coins for the set in even the lowest grade go for over $240.

I could fill three more holes if I decided to break up some coins that I have in US mint packaging but I am not going to do that yet.

Have fun filling those holes.
That's why I don't use albums.
Having holes would drive me nuts.  ;D

I've been collecting (Hoarding) for many decades and I don't have 10 of the various coins listed. That's a tough order to fill. I wish you luck.
