I'm down to filling the last five holes for my Indian Head cents album. I have a new Dansco 7101 which I paid $20 for a while back. Most of my coins for this album are still in their TPG slabs, waiting to be cracked out once I have all the coins I need.

But I just realized something about this particular album: one of the holes I need to fill is for an 1869/69 overdate.

It just occurred to me that it would cost less money to purchase a different album, which doesn't have a hole for the overdate, than it would be for me to find and to buy the coin.

So I would like to ask y'all if you know of a nice album (not a folder) for Indian Head cents that does not have a space for the 1869/9 coin.

I was going to recommend an Intercept Shield IHC album BUT it has a spot for an 1869/69 also.
Keep looking.

Whitman does too.

Just checked Littleton and theirs includes the FE's including the 1856.

Harris doesn't include the 1869/69 BUT has the "force fit" holes instead of plastic slides.

If you want a reasonable album it looks like you'll have to accept one with room for the error coin.

Thanks, kanga, I have a lot of Capital Plastics holders, but not that one. Concerning the albums, maybe the 1869 error coin slot is common to most of them. I could always look for a G-VG coin for that slot (since my 1877 is a low grade).

My latest Capital Plastic project:

That looks like it might work, hfjacinto!

You could always put a blank cent in that hole as a filler

You mean like I did for the 1916 Standing Liberty quarter?

I made a custom Dansco album with two blank cents pages. If you want labels for the holes you will need to do that yourself, but I opted to not label them. Turns out there are dates right there on the coins.

This album also has two blank pages each for Buffalo (Bison) nickels and Mercury dimes.

Contact China to make you one of those coins.
