What Do Your Plan To Do If Dansco Bows Out Of The Coin Album Business?

I made my decision. I am going with CAPS albums.

Got my first shipment this week and to add insult to injury, it came in a Dansco Box!

I hope for the sake of the Dansco lovers on this forum that Dansco re-evaluates their
commitment to coin collectors. But I have made my decision and their is no going back!

I don't think I could have made this decision if I had a sizable collection already stored
in albums. I spent the time and money on many different styles of storage, including
polypropylene 20 slots for cardboard flips, Eagle hard plastic pages for 2x2 coin snaps,
Dansco and Littleton albums, and CAPS pages.

So now I am starting with an almost clean slate with the CAPS album. For ME, it was the
best compromise between appearance, convenience, and safety. That said, I still like
the look of Dansco albums and probably would "standardized" on them had the stock
of their annual, cent through half dollar page been available. Further investigation
seemed to indicate that Dansco was not producing new albums OR update pages for existing
albums.

That troubled me. I did not want to start storing my collection in a system that might
or might not be available in the future to complete the collection. So CAPS won out in the
"competition."

As well it should. I think you made the right decision.

That is why we are here.

I found the Littleton album hard to work with. The transparent slides tend to get
stuck outside the holes and the smaller coins can slip between the two layers.

That said, my first album was a Littleton album.

CAPS stands for Collector's Archival Protection System. It allows you to display your
Air-Tite protected coins in an album.

Why is Dansco always so slow to market with updated albums and album pages? Are we ever going to see a Quarters album which includes the "S" mint state with the "S" proofs (I assume I can give up on the limited edition versions as part of my in book collectibles)? As a collector for 45 years plus the amount of money I have put into Dansco only to be met with a "who cares what you want" attitude has gotten really old. They have made huge amounts of money from the collectors and their sense of responsibility to us is nil. Please relay my feelings to them as it seems they do not want to publish a web address (too many complaints I assume)

When I first was switching to albums, I only got a few Whitman albums before I switched to Dansco. I now have 29 Dansco albums. I don't want the expense of switching all those, but I might have to switch for anything new.

Other than in my Type Set, I don't have any of the Barber coins: dime, quarter, half, etc. But I don't like that design.
