Dansco Album or Whitman album.

Stay away from the three page folders.

The Dansco album allows you to add 2 more pages.

Alrighty, I have heard that keeping coins in their 2x4s and in pages in a binder preserves the coin better than in the albums

Intercept Shield Album (if they make one for SLQ?)... archival materials, and silver looks great against the forest green!

Ok I did a little checking on great quality folders. Intercept shield doesn't make one for slq. But the following companies do. Whitman classic, Littleton, and Dansco all do. All three of these have the double side view of your coins. hope this helps.

Ps. Nice buy!

Gotta love those SLQ's. Those are in nice shape and great collectable coins IMO.
I especially like the 20-s.

Look good, thats a more doable set than the Morgans and a beautiful coin too. I like the Whitman albums as the blue of the pages shows off silver coins nicely. Dansco I wish would do away with the pukey tan pages, not the most attractive color to view coins against.

Yeah, those are very nice pickups. Yeah intercept shield doesn't make an SLQ album. I keep my set in a Dansco w/slipcase, which supposedly provides better protection than intercept shield. I've never noticed any difference in the appearance of the coins so far. No toning or damage. Since I don't want toning, it's good. I will say that Whitman's blue would look better with a silver coin, but their album quality is less. I don't know what color Littleton's pages are or know if their new "archival quality" albums are really comparable to Dansco.

Thanks guys! I am probably going to de-slab the 1920s..its a National Numismatic Certification and it honestly is way over graded. It says its an XF-45 and I know that isn't true. I've been checking ebay a lot lately but havent found any deals yet like I found last weekend!
