I like the album a lot, not sure if person I bought it from customized it and just bought by pages I am sure they customized it. Easy to buy the pages and binder separately.

RubyOpal Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 02/12/2018 2:55 pm Maybe I should post this as a separate topic, but... how about a Littleton album? I, too, am looking for an album for Mercury dimes, and Littleton has one that looks nice and is archival quality. Is Dansco really that much superior? is it that having albums of all one type just looks nicer on a shelf? Edited by RubyOpal 02/12/2018 3:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

However, both answers are opinions, not objective truth.

Andrew99 CCF Advertiser United States 1533 Posts	Posted 02/12/2018 5:25 pm For long term storage, I'd like an album that doesn't result in my silver coins turning black? Has anyone used any of these over like 20 years? I've used a Wayte Raymond holder and had the most beautiful colors form until some of the coins reached the terminal stage.

Yes and yes. I personally like dansco over any other album manufacturer. Their albums just seem to be more solid and of better quality. Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 02/15/2018 10:51 pm One nice thing about Whitman Classic Albums for Mercury dimes is the cover is large enough to add many more pages. In all of my Whitman Albums for Mercury dimes I have two sets. Simply buy the Dime pages and add to the Album. I've been using Whitman Albums for a long, long time and no problems. It is unfortunate that they are made in China though. And actually not really Whitman either since now owned by Harris. Yet so many options are available such as blank pages, blank covers, press on letters/numbers and more. Report this Post to the Staff

I really wish they would come up with an aggressive strategy to open a new marketplace that directly competes with the ebay style Report this Post to the Staff
JoshsCoins New Member United States 43 Posts	Posted 02/17/2018 5:20 pm Dansco has been in that anonymous location forever. I used to drive up and down Jefferson (when the freeway was clogged) going back and forth from USC and the Westside and would see it there. They don't allow walk-ins, everything is by work order only. It will be interesting to see how much longer they stay in that location. After Metro opened the Expo rail line and LA passed a new slate of density bonuses, that whole corridor down Exposition Blvd and Jefferson Blvd is going to be redeveloped. Developers are now allowed to build more dwelling units than what the underlying zoning allows when a site is in a certain radius of a transit station/hub. These old warehouses are cheap to demolish and located on extraordinarily valuable land. Edited by JoshsCoins 02/17/2018 5:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff
