That's a nice looking album! Definitely making me consider buying one more.

One of my favorite things about this album is the way the front cover attaches/detaches from the rings (you can see the mechanism in my 3rd pic above) so that the album lays completely flat. All of the Lighthouse albums I have do this.

I received two of the standard albums for Christmas and have finally managed to take a photo of one of them. I put my US coins not in Dansco albums, currency and bullion coins in one and all my World coins in the other. Here are a few photos of the finished product.    |

They also make a slab page - 6 of them fill the large sized binder (3 in the thinner one). Each page is a fold-over semi-rigid two-piece clear plastic and holds 9 slabs.
The binders+pages add up to a semi-pricy option, but it's a fabulous presentation for a slabbed collection. On sale, binder+4 pages for $40...

These look great! How are they holding up, half a year later?

They are holding up really well. I think I want another one as both of them are already full. The only thing I don't like is about the Cowen's pages. Even though I spent a little more, the weight of the coins in the pages is still wearing out the punched holes. The albums are great though. I would still recommend them to anyone.

After a few years of enjoying these binders, I've bought another one. I plan to put all my European coins in there along with my 19th century crown collection I've been acquiring. I'll post some pictures after I get the album and swap over the coins from the other album.

On a side note, @jason39305 what is the silver ounce to the right of SK Chiwoo? I've been planning out a world ounce collection and that's the only one in the group I don't recognize

That coin is part of the British Landmark series. It's the Tower Bridge coin. They made several other coins in the series as well. I like them all, but that's the only one I have.

I use the Lighthouse Grande Slab Albums. They look the same and have held up very well.

Excellent. I'm still happy with all of my Lighthouse albums that I've purchased over the years. Glad you are too. |
