Hi MontanaCMR, I have no affiliation with this company, but this is where I purchased my album and extra pages. Prices appear reasonable and shipping was fair. I also got all my airtite capsules from them. http://www.air-tites.com/air-tite_c....VC19ahZuWpMI ordered two of the 'H' Albums and 10 of the 'Model H card- 5 hole' pages so I could double up the pages in the albums. You could probably use just one page, but I liked the extra thickness (two pages are as thick as an airtite holder.) |

GR58,
I initially had my collection in a Dansco 39mm page Album, but I like the look of the black pages better for these rounds. Post some pics once you get your Dansco!

Wow, thanks for the reply. I just purchased a barber 1895 O today so I could make my zombucks (just ordered) like yours.
One question, do you like the proof or non-proof copper? I am thinking of ordering both, but wonder which you would get if you only ordered one.
I'll probably order both, and then need to order one of each of the non-proof silver so it looks exactly like yours. I think that is one of the coolest albums I have ever seen. I just love how you blended the past with the present.

I am torn on the coppers, but if you get the proofs then you might as well get the BU version, too! That is cool you are starting an album. Thanks for the kind words about mine. Please post pics of your progress, I'd like to see it as it comes along.

Dang, So I just got the 5 silver proofs and the copper proofs are on the way. I wanted to figure a way to include both the cases and the old coins, but can't think of a way to do it even close to as nice as you have it. I did buy books (mostly full) of Mercury dimes, Barber halves, 50 cent bens, and walking liberty 50 cent) today as they make the zombucks that much cooler when you have a bunch of the real ones. Tomorrow, I will order that 5 coin book if I can't come up with any ideas. Thanks again for sharing. It seems like every idea is great, but costs me a lot of money. |

Montana, did you see the thread I posted on birth year sets for my kids?I used the same albums and I think they turned out pretty cool. |

This is my first time trying to upload images, but I wanted to come up with something that would allow me to keep the boxes and cases. I haven't figured out what to do, as I don't know how to get the boxes/coins to stay without damaging the package. However, I can close the case, which is just a cheap hobby lobby box. I just looked and it actually looks better in person than this picture. The picture makes it look more cluttered than it is. However, I think I will try and make the briefcase ready for the 10 silver proof, 10 copper proof, and 10 real coins. I love the boxes and cases, but they need to go.   Edited by MontanaCMR

Here is another try at Kookaburra. I really like the presentation and don't do what they always say -- buy the coin, not the packaging. At least in this case I made the packaging.    Edited by MontanaCMR

Less "busy", but still trying to use the box. I need to shave off a bit so the tray fits better. I also don't know how to attache to boxes, without damaging them. I do like being able to see them all at once. I guess two boxes if I collect the other 5.   |

I liked yours so much, but didn't want to copy exactly. I wish I could delete my initial pictures as I was kinda brainstorming at the time. I didn't want to use a "nice" box, but rather a case that looked, well, zombie-like. Is there a way to delete the cluttered initial picture?
