Here's a similar holder, Capital #460, made between '65 and '70. No Ike dollar and the Kennedys are listed as .900 1964 and .400 1965- with no end date. It also doesn't have holes for Type I & II Buffs or SLQs.  Gyrene . . if I may ask, how much was your holder on ebay? I just took the coins out of mine and am deciding what to do with the holder. Wish I had scanned it before removing the coins because the blue (or the black) really shows off AU-BU-Proof examples.

That blue holder is awesome. I'd love to own one like that for my kids. I'll have to check out ebay to see if I can get one. My son would love it.

I have a white holder that is a little later than the first one, it does have the Bicentennials but I don't remember if it has the SBA. It's the holder I built my proof set in. Still need the Barber quarter and half. The steel cent, Type I buffalo, Standing quarter, and Peace dollar are Mint State, everything else is proof.

Conder101, that sounds like an awesome set. I have an 18 hole holder which I was planning to fill with proof coins. The only two issues that didn't have proofs made are the Peace dollar and Standing Liberty quarter. It doesn't have a hole for the steel cent or type I Buffalo nickel. Ed ANA LM-3175

Here's mine (the terrible picture it is). The one dumb thing with this set is that they have the NCLT version of the Eisenhower (silver) dollar which was never intended for circulation, whereas all other coins were.

The Eisenhower dollar is special. That is my story and I am sticking to it.

Prethen, I LIKE that holder and the picture is fine even with the reflection of the light which doesn't cover any of the coins. Now I'll have to search for one though I prefer white over black. The black holders are great for bright coins but brown coppers or toned silver do not show that well. Ed ANA LM-3175

That's awesome. Those holders seem to be hard to come by and they are somewhat pricey. You will have fun filling it!

I have a old Capital type set holder in there in a box that was given to me a few years ago. I think I have put a few circulated coins in there but nothing like I did with the Dansco album. I also have a 20th century Dollar capital holder that has one of each type of Dollars that have been minted in the 20th century and its stops at the Ike or SBA (not sure which one)

I have a holder similar to prethen black with gold lettering but closer to Jeffrose's holder in size. Mine does not have the place for VDB Lincoln, or type 1 on the Buffalo nickle or the Standing Liberty quarter but all the other in prethen's set. It's a handsome holder but I'm torn on which coins I want in it verses my 7070.

Quote: Does it have any covering for the coins? There is a clear panel which goes on the front and back of the colored center panel which holds the coins. Quote: Those holders seem to be hard to come by and they are somewhat pricey If purchased new they are quite expensive. This Bowers and Ruddy Galleries holder probably cost them well over $100.00 each being custom made and probably had holes for types not included in the stock Capital Plastics type set holder. I paid $20.00 for a pair 19th and 20th Century type set holders #460 A and B which were slightly used in their original boxes. I just acquired a lot of seven Capital Plastics holders which included one #460-B never used in the box, one all mints holder for 2 1/2 dollar gold coins in the box, one used #490 Capital Plastics type set holder, a set of the three Capital Plastics holders for the silver eagles plus an extra one for the years 1995-2003 all unopened and I paid $58.50.00 for the whole lot including shipping. The never used $460-B holder alone originally cost almost $60.00. These holders can be had for much less than their new price with a little searching. Ed ANA LM-3175

Was just up on Capital Plastics web site and saw that they had a 19th century holder for type coins. They also had individual 2in x 6in holders for type coins, cents, dimes, etc. They have room for about 6 different cents, whatever. They were really nice. tried to grab a picture but they were all png images. Prices were like double what dealers like Wizard was charging for the same items. edgman

edgman, The prices on the Capital Plastics web site are their suggested retail prices. Capital Plastics price for a 19th Century type set holder is $60.90, Wizard's price is $45.68 and the slighlty used one I have I bought at a coin show for $10.00 in its original box. Wizard orders a large enough quantity that they can sell the same holders for significantly less than can be had from capital Plastics. They are the ones to buy from if you want a new in the box holder. I browse coin shows and ebay for new and slightly used holders that I want and can usually get them on the cheap. Ed ANA LM-3175
