These were handed down to me and are fom my Dad's personal collection.

He became a coin collector while in the Air Force and would take me and my baby sister to various coin shows while growing up. We collected some on our own but never had the knowledge he did. So while her and I would base our preferences on what was shiny or pretty that would soon prove our coin collecting abilities as less than stellar.

These were from his most personal favorites and he added to them with each of our birth years and other significant events or preference. I have 20 in total which he acquired direct from the Us Treasury or at coin shows in the early 1970s. Dates are 1953-1964. Some have notes which i have noted in specific listing where applicable.

I have left them as they were stored - unopened and untampered with (none of the plastic packs have been opened ever and some of the envelops were still sealed). If the envelop is still sealed it will be noted as such. One is missing the envelop (1958) and one envelop is damaged (1956).some have the odd note from Superintendant (where noted)

This is the 1959 P proof set of 5 coins and its marked "1959 GEM PROOF SET" on the card and therre is an odd note inside. If you know the history of these that were in certain years and sets, please email me or reference a link in comments. I have found a few small article references during the time but nothing about which sets should have one and any variations on the note to look for. (and form numbers or other markings that should be). I noticed this one was typed and the one I have from thr next year is slightly different. See photos

thanks
