This has been discussed here before. They should be included in the album but are not. The mintages for both varieties are close to the same, so one is just as easy to find as the other.

For what it is worth, the 1974 varieties are not listed in the Red Book. Dansco likes to include the more popular varieties.

Honestly, I would think that a major company like Dansco would be what makes some varieties more popular than others. If they include it in their albums then it will become popular.

I still wouldn't be bothered to get them even if Dansco told me I needed them for what they'd consider to be a set. I don't want or own a 192 plain cent, but Dansco says I need one. If nothing else, people can get the blank "cents" pages and make their own set with the 1974 varieties in it. As for me and my set, we are happy as we are.

Maybe, or if they include them their albums become less popular.

Who am I kidding, Dansco will always be more popular.

All cents minted for proof and mint sets in 2009 were 95% copper.

I personally consider large/small date differences to be for the error and variety type collectors (I realize they aren't errors). I don't think they should include it for any years.

Just goes to show that whatever they do, they won't please everyone.....

It's a slippery slope. First you inclue the '74 date varieties, then the 98-00 WAM, then the 92 CAM. Then all 100+ varieties of 2009 LP-2.

Oh come on, who wouldn't want a separate album for each and every year in the series. Then if you are a roll hunter you get to fill a hole every box!
