I have full sets (no error coins) in Whitman books of the following:

Indian Head Cent (1856-1909)
(2) Lincoln Cents (1909-mid 1970's) - one set is missing 1909-S VDB
Liberty Head Nickels (1883-1913)
(4)Jefferson Nickles (1938-1964)
Mercury Dimes (1916-1945)
Roosevelt Dimes (1946-mid 1970's)
Washington Head Quarter (1932 - Mid 1970's)
Liberty Halves (1937-1947)
Franklin Halves (1948-1963)
Peace Dollar (1921-1935)

Various (nothing rare) double eagles, quarter eagles and dollar gold pieces
Various CC dollars and Dollars minted in New Orleans
Various mid-20th century proof sets
A few pages of early 20th century US paper currency
A few pages of confederate currency
A few pages of late 19th century and early 20th century Northern European coins
A couple of roman coins (they look roman - I really don't know what the hell they are)
Some Spanish Reals
A few dozen random Peace and Morgan Dollars
A few dozen silver eagles
Multiple rolls of silver mid 20th century US dimes & quarters
Multiple rolls of wheat pennies
A wooden nickel

I am not a big fan of the silver eagles because they never circulate. They are nice coins and lots of people collect them, but they are all MS and minted to be collected so I don't see how they will have the numismatic value of the coins that actually circulated. However I do want the 1995-W and might buy one at a weak moment.

The only thing I've ever sold is the 2006 Silver Eagle 3 coin set w/ reverse proof....I have no intention of ever selling anything else it all has too much sentimental value. But I do hope to get my Daughter interested in it one day so she doesn't sell it all and go buy a bunch of worthless junk.
