I picked this type set album up years ago and I think I might like another one like this. The problem is there is no manufacture name on it. I was thinking is was a dansco but they don't use pages like that as far as I know. But I have been known to be mistaken at times.    |

Oooh, hey, that's nice... That's exactly what I need to keep my coins in.
Slots to slip in labels... clear, visible... very nice. I look forward to seeing the answer to this one. Thanks :D

Brkdnc, I am almost certain that is a "COINGARD" album. Don't know if they're still made. I had a couple of 'em in the mid 70s and I liked them for the same reasons y'all do. They were made by ENOR Corporation. There's a few on ebay right now. Do an ebay search in SUPPLIES for "COINGARD" and you'll find 'em. :-) Edited by Firecom911

The patented name is COINGARD...without the U.
If you search for COINGUARD, you may not find anything.

Didn't the old ones have PVC in it? I believe they still make new ones that are PVC free, so make sure your buying a new one and not NOS(new old stock).

I had the same album.
Spaces for all US type coins.
Unfortunately it causes PVC and made a mess of several coins.

I Googled Enor Corporation, and it appears that they are only still producing sports cards supplies. Here is the link. There is a Contact Us option. Maybe you could email them directly and ask about new albums without PVC? http://www.enor.com/web2002/toys4.html |

I have one that looks just like it that a set of Walking Liberty halves came in and the inside back cover says its a Harco Coinmaster. By the way its for sale if anyone is interested. Edited by JimR

Just to add a note, if your album is the old version, get your coins out. I had several sets in these and they made a mess of the coins.After I took the coins out of the sleeve you can actually see the entire image of the coin in the plastic.I use a similar product from Gardmaster and Unimaster hopefully without pvc, and have had no problem.

I think the old ones were called HARCO and they smelled like a shower curtain. I have a sad story on those but would rather not think about it. The inserts were soft and almost felt oily. The new ones I think are stiff inserts and odorless. I think they look pretty neat, but the coins could still bang each other if pages are carelessly turned and allowed to drop on those below. Always store upright like you would put a book on a bookshelf.

And that, boys and girls, is the beginning of PVC damage  I once saw a set of 1940-197X Lincoln cents in a similar album, they started out nice RD but all ended up bright slimy green  Edited by biokemist6
