jbuck Moderator United States 187565 Posts	Posted 12/11/2023 10:29 am Yeah, Dansco is sneaky. The album says "including proof-only issues," not all proof issues. 1971 was the first year the a S nickel was only proof. For 1968-1970, San Francisco also minted coins for circulation. As far as I know, the Kennedy half dollar album is the only one that breaks this rule. It has places for both 1964-P (circulation and proof) and places for the 1965-1967 SMS coins.

Dearborn Moderator United States 94672 Posts	Posted 12/13/2023 1:38 pm I noticed that myself - I just bought a blank nickel page and labeled them for the missing early proofs. Collecting since 1972.

DanFielding Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 12/13/2023 2:22 pm I've tried to do that, good luck even finding blank dansco pages I'm looking for blank pages for the extra proof cents you get in silver proof sets, same with nickels and Sacagawea dollars. Pages are scarce. Report this Post to the Staff

I bought small dollar, nickel, and cent pages recently.

Bosstone100 Valued Member United States 117 Posts	Posted 08/24/2024 6:52 pm A bit of an old topic but I just bought the Jefferson w/Proofs album and also an extra page to hold proofs from 1950-1970 along with any varieties, reverse proofs and other collector coins like W minted, etc. Report this Post to the Staff
