Default Help with a project?

So I am trying to put together a Key Date Quick Reference card for modern coins. This is just the "prototype" but was curious about any input you may have. Including proof sets would make the lists too long, so this is just a circulated list of pennies and nickles...dimes and quarters will go on the back.

Yeah I figure I would laminate one and carry it in my wallet too. I am just wondering if there are any dates I may be missing or that I should remove?

That's a tough call. There are many coins that jump in value big time when you start talking the higher grades. Most dug coins won't qualify, but a few on here seem pretty nice. Personally, I just take the average circulated values and go from there....

I have not made it that far yet....but that is one of the coins that made me think to do this. Maybe give one to my buddies girlfriend who is a bartender and have her keep an eye out just for these specific dates.

That is kinda my thinking, maybe make another card down the line for proof sets, just in case I am ever at a garage sale or flea market and need a guideline.
