Is Dansco Going To Start Producing Albums Again? (Follow For Updates)

Well you don't 'have to' but to be consistent

I am not opposed to the idea. My Indian Head cents, Buffalo (Bison) nickels, and Mercury dimes are all together in a custom album using blank cent, nickel, and dime pages. Allowed me to ignore those pesky "extras" that the standard albums list (Looking at you, 1864 L, 1869/69, 1886 VII, 1918-D 8/7, and 1937-D 3 Legged.)

If history is any indication, I wouldn't expect the Mint to announce its 2025 designs (the last year of the program) until sometime in 2024.

(But maybe the Mint will work differently going forward.)

A bummer I have to wait that long to get that album. It will be better if it is properly labeled, so I am not going to complain.

Thanks Joe - I will have to look into that.

Well my 7182 ASE Album just arrived - time to start modifying the second 'blank' page to accommodate the Burnished coins to be released.....

(I am officially running out of shelf space for all my albums...)
But it is nice to see them selling (and making) them again - no more third party SUPER expensive albums anymore (I hope).

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.
