that folder looks allot more obtainable to just about everyone than the Dansco7070 album. Even if you get low grade coins for the dansco you will still have quite a bit more cash tied up in the whole album than some people can afford. I myself love the 7070 albums but I think either of those type sets look good as well and is still an accomplishment you can be proud of when finished

I love these, when you show them to kids, they can't believe they made coins like that. lot of history

I believe that is the best part of the type set. Its not only kids either, there are some adults that has never seen nor heard of a Large Cent, 3¢ or a 20¢ piece

I can't find the Whitman w/birth year - is this the Littleton type folder w/birth year?

Great Job!

I am working on a type set too. My wife doesn't understand the whole "collecting every date and mint mark thing" but when I showed here what I have on the type set... she said... now thats cool!

Yes, that is the Littleton folder for 20th Century type coins.

Thanks, I'd hate to buy three and find out they didn't have the birth year holes!

Nice set! Looks good. I just have to say that I have been very unhappy using the blue Whitman folders. I have had some very nice coins turn into poor ones using these folders. You may want to consider using another type of holder.

I will keep a close eye on it and if I notice any problems I will be sure to take them out. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks all for IDing which Whitman holders these were! I got three in the mail today for the kids, and just put their birth year sets in each.

Hi Baysinger,
I was going to just do the birth years, but then decided to spread some love around. I took two Morgans, a Peace, a 64 Kennedy, a Franklin, a Walker, an SLQ, a Barber quarter and dime, a Mercury dime, a war nickle, a Buffalo, an IHC, a steel cent and some other coins and divided them up between the folders. They'll have plenty of holes to fill!
Thanks for the tip on these folders!
