Also an album can ruin a BU coin. Here is an example of a Whitman toning:

Silver also turns in the blue albums:

So not a good place to store them, unless you want them toned.

Coop, the bottom photo is a folder, not an album. Albums may not be perfect, but they are still better than folders.

Dansco already made a specially produced error album. They're tough to find though.

Now we are cooking. Please add any info ... I follow this thread.

My particular interest is in Kennedy half, Ike dollars, ... some interest in quarter and dime.

This coin was in a Dansco for about 8 years and turned it.

Another thing to keep in mind is that where you keep your albums has more to do with it than the albums alone. My oldest Dansco albums are almost thirty years old. I have had no problems with them toning the coins beyond what they may have had when added to the album.

Im a relative newbie, one thing about coins that drove me nuts was either flips or flip albums. In stepped dansco albums. I love the them the coins being in order or being able to organize them myself. I keep my variety coins in little 2x2 plastic holders as inevitably I like to put them under the loupe or what not. I have yet to have a coin change and tone in any book I own. But they havent been in the books for decades like some peoples. IMO the albums are great not a fan of folders unless they are for pocket change. I have 13 albums so far. I am going to do a dansco custom for varieties where I will eventually put all of my discoveries. One thing for sure the coins have to be placed with care into the books they can be in to far or not far enough and the slides will rub on them.

In 1978 my father brought home two Eisenhower dollars and gave them to me. I had never seen a dollar coin before, but my interest began that day. Yes, I still have the two Eisenhower dollars! My mother started buying me folders, books, and magazines to feed my interest and would take me to the local coin shop on occasion. My parents would also let me search their change to fill the folders.

The first two Dansco albums I got where Eisenhower and Kennedy. The Lincoln followed shortly after. All three albums will be thirty years old this coming winter.

Nothing else to say. I dont remember much about them, just that they did not satisfy my needs for storing my coins. They did not have the traditional slots that you normally see in Dansco albums, but a plastic page much like the ones used to store 2x2 flips, if I remember correctly.

The problem with the plastic page is that the sliding of the page can scratch BU/Proof coins.

My Father got a Washington-Carver HALF for me, back when I was young.

He paid the bank teller $.60 for it. Remember that all so well. Have no idea why the bank charged a 10 cent premium. A half was huge money and a dime would buy a show ticket.

STILL GOT IT.

I will always have it ... It is the last coin I will ever part with ... Come heck or high water.

Sadly, until after I came to CCF ... I had no idea how to treat coins with the respect they deserve. Oh well ... better late than never.

I can only wish I would have stated collecting coins sooner.

If I would have started collecting ikes (back when I was a merchant -- with a little better financial condition) The fed would be calling me to send them a ton or 2 of Ikes. hehe.
