gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 04/17/2015 1:39 pm It could most likely be me GR58. I don't even remember when exactly I bought it but 2009 sounds about right. It's a really beautiful album once it's complete. Shame that it's no longer in production. I would even design and asked for it to be manufactured if I knew how to. The condition of the album however is not the best - some wear and tear. In fact, I had to glue parts of the album when I first got it. If you muck around at my site, you'll find it.

My 7070 album looks similar to yours and it is copyright 1965. (they have the same color pages and the texture of the pages looks similar to mine). Report this Post to the Staff

My 7070 album looks similar to yours and it is copyright 1965. (they have the same color pages and the texture of the pages looks similar to mine). Dansco has evolved over the years. I have two albums that I bought in the eighties, but were make in the late seventies. They have that same look. One thing about them is that the model numbers on the spine have serifs, whereas all the newer albums are sans serif.

GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 04/17/2015 11:39 pm I look at another album like this online. The Last coin in that album was dated 1970. The last (newest) coin in my album is dated 1964. It does not have a slot for the coin dated 1970 that the album online has. So my guess is that my album was made between 1965 and 1970.

gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 04/18/2015 06:27 am Interesting. I just realized mine has a hole for the 1970 Expo and yours don't! For reference, I have a Fiji album and the cut off date on it is 1964 even though the series continued all the way to 1968. That's it - will be spending more time on designing a newer Japan album.

gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 06/10/2015 04:08 am There was one sold on Heritage last year. Just found it by coincidence while I was looking for something else. I nearly flipped when I saw the final price. This does not include 1870 yen and the Trade dollar coin. http://coins.ha.com/itm/japan/japan...3032-32434.s I didn't expect it to go close to 1000 dollars! Still in the middle of designing a new album. This I can assure you will be better than the original.
