Why are some Dansco albums so hard to find, or not produced any longer? Or produced it seems in random spurts? For example, I'd like to possibly start up a Washington quarter collection, which Dansco has an album for from 1932-1998, both with proofs and without. However, they appear to have stopped producing this particular album. I found several recently after hunting around... For ridiculous prices. My local coin dealer has one USED for 50 dollars. And I found one online for like 80 dollars new. Ridiculous. This doesn't seem to be the case with just this album, but other albums by Dansco as well. What gives? *Dansco 8100 Lincoln cents Liberty "V" nickels Jefferson nickels 1938-current Buffalo nickels Roosevelt Dimes Eisenhower/Anthony dollars** Report this Post to the Staff

The Dansco topic has received a good deal of attention within the forum. Suggest searching the forum for more complete info. Edited by ijn1944 01/22/2025 07:47 am Report this Post to the Staff
