Well, here we are in mid August 2023. I really do not see any progress by Dansco to put anything into production. I normally use Wizard Coin Supply and everything Dansco is out of stock.
I was just at the World's Fair of money and the Whitman booth was large and had everything, repeat, everything in stock that you could want. There was every series of folders, albums, extra pages, plus many books they produce, etc. I picked up the latest Cherrypickers book along with a Whitman US Type coin collection 20th and 21st Centuries album. The latter because I knew I'd not find a Dansco version.
I acquired a few
Barber dimes while at the show and thought I might find a Dansco album for them. As expected, not a single
Barber dime album can be found anywhere. And last I looked, it's one of those series the mint has finished producing (unlike the excuses I am reading for the AWQ series). I would expect more common albums the "us mint is no longer producing coins for" to be in production and more readily available. All I see are offers on
ebay and elsewhere with outrageous pricing - like $180. I paid $27 for the Whitman album. I'll buy a nice type coin for the album with the $150 saved.
I probably mentioned this before, but I am completely done with Dansco. They are not producing product of any sort that I can tell and there only seem to be excuses. Those excuses have been told for years on end.
