I have...

Danscos:

Jefferson Nickels 1938-Present w/Proofs
Roosevelt Dimes 1946-Present w/Proofs
Washington Quarters 1932-1998 w/Proofs

Littleton:

I'm actually close to completing the Type set, Ikes, Sacs, Susie B's. The rest have a way to go.

I was totally avoiding the State Quarter Album, but I have so many leftover mint/proof/silver proof set just the quarter parts that I'm thinking I might just do it.

I broke down about a month ago and bought both the 79 and 81. But it cost me. The show was about an hours drive in Cincinatti. The dealer had five 79s and looked throug them and pick what I thought was the best. But when I got home I notice that the 79 was really a 80. Had a clear S though. So I had to do the 2 hours drive to exchange it. Thought the dealer might give me a hard time since I had already left the show. But he exchanged it without question.

I have about a billion and one state quarters albums, none with anything in them. I don't intend to fill them any time soon. All gifts.

I have a smattering of other us-coin albums, but if they have anything at all in them, it is only world coins of the same size... never kept an album with the coins intended for it, maybe I'll have to try it.

Almost there. That's a nice typeset you're building.

I have not used albums to store my coins in, mainly because I do not want the album to tone out my coins.

I would like an album that you can put 2x2's or air-tites in the proper areas and can see the obverse and reverse that way. Maybe this album already exists and I just have not found it.

For now, I just keep my type sets together in 2x2 coin trays I get from Lighthouse
papadoc
these pics are huge i'm sorry...
here's my lincoln set, 09-40 at least. it still needs work, but it's a good start.. i'm going for the look first, the grade second.. 14S is a good example of the color i'm after, 13S is a good one too. the scans do this set no justice at all.. but like i said it needs some work for it to be perfect..

41-58 are the same color, the 43's are reprocessed.. they have a dark silver look. even the memorials are all brown, but that folder needs a lot of work.. it's hard to find new coins in old shape sometimes... buba.gif

Have a few collections on the go but it's unlikely that there are any albums available for any of the collections currently being worked on.

Prefer to store them via other methods that won't tone the coins anyhow.

I *wish* that I could make my own folder... sleep.gif

My 2x2 coin folder looks too ugly. sad.gif Or rather, there are some coins that don't even fit in a 2x2 any longer... due to the massive coins that I am collecting... sad.gif

*darn @ russian massive silver rubles and 5 kopeks... >_< *

Hi-
I put together a 20th century type set with each coin placed in a Cointoin holder and then the holder and coin placed in a 2 x 2 staple type. Then stored the 2 x 2 in 20 pocket 3-ring binder pages. Absolutely no toning now for 10 years. Hope this might help Rabone.

Larry-
Thanks for the advice. Sounds like you too strive to stop the toning effect.

I know it is to each his own, but coins that have the circle tone ring around them from being in a old album for years just do not do anything for me. On the other hand, it just might be the thing that lights your fire. And so it goes...

I also am thinking on buying a ASE Album for my ungraded set.

ps I need some advice!
I have a NGC MS-69 ASE set. I also have a 50 - 60% completed raw set, in airtites. I was thinking of taking the raw set out of the air tites and putting them in an album. I'm hoping 4 some nice even toning!
Question is two-fold, Is this a good thing to do and what knid of album do U suggest? Thx smile.gifbiggrin.gif

Importa 2x2's in Importa pages for 20 coins. I'd need bigger coinholders for some coins, but they seem to be kinda hard to find. I have made an album for russian coins from 1894 to 1917, which has places for over 300 coins. About 170 of them are filled by now. It includes russian and finnish coins of the period, and a couple of small russian medals. My second russian coin album is for russian and finnish coins from 1881 to 1894, it is allmost empty. sorry.gif
Also I have a similar album for Austrian-Hungarian coins from 1892 to 1917. Since there aren't too many austro-hungarian coins of that period, it has space for coins from Serbia, Bulgaria and Montenegro too.

I'm happy with them ok.gif

ASE's turn pretty easily. I use a Littleton for my ASE's, but it's equivalent to a Dansco, same setup. You wouln't want a Whitman for sure.

I realize not it is going to take a miracle to get my Dansco SQ album w/proofs & silver complete. I checked out 1999 silver sets and they're going for upwards of $350 on Ebay now!!! Holy Moly.

It is cheaper right now to buy those 5 quarters individually. The proof set collectors seem to be driving the price, so the individual coins are a little more modest. Good luck!

I may actually check into that. Thank you.

I just checked on eBay and it looks like they are all closing at about $45-$55 each, so you should be able to do a set of the 5 for about $250...that's expensive, but it's $100 cheaper than buying the whole set.

Is this in the format of need/have? or Have/need ? or a number I like/another number I like?

You're doing quite well on your albums. I assume it's need/total. Just could pass up the opportunity for a zing at the Tiffibunny. hi.gif

I quite clearly said I was missing 94/246, aka missing 94 of 246 total. bwink.gif
