I admit it: I'm a total geek. I love electronics, programming, 3D printing, 3D art, and vintage Apple hardware. I'm always juggling half a dozen projects. I also enjoy documenting it all: my successes, my failures, my experiences... and everything geeky along the way.

2010 Annual Coin Buying Spree

My iPhone apps did really well this month and Apple deposited a nice fat check into my account. So I figured it was that time of the year to drop some cash on some coins. Gotta try and get those Dansco albums up-to-date!

After a quick review of my albums, I decided to try and fill all the 2003 and 2004 holes this time.

Here’s the rundown of what I picked up:

2003 Mint Set

2003 Silver Proof Set

2004 Mint Set
2004 Silver Proof Set

And just for kicks, I picked up the 2009 Silver Proof Set straight from the Mint. I was dying to see first hand what those new Lincoln’s looked like. I can’t believe it’s March 2010 already and I haven’t seen a single one in circulation yet!

Looking at eBay prices, the silver proof sets seem to go up the most, the fastest. So I thought it would be wise to get the 2009 set now, rather than later.

Man, you sure get a lot of coin for $60 bucks.

Those new Lincolns look awesome!
