Anyone have any experience or input about using a Dansco 7107 (the blank "cents" album) for Canadian cents?

Yes
A couple months ago I purchased two blank Danco cent and Nicole albums,
For Canada cent and nickel coins.
I am waiting for Wizard to get the blank milliliter pages for Canada large cents,to add to the same album. The large cent do fit into Sacagawea holes.
I did add a blank page to the nickel album, to hold Canada five cent silver coins, and have another blank page on back order ...
What questions do you have?

I was basically wondering if the small cents fit in the album. I want to house my Canadian small cent collection in one but don't want to pay the money unless it'll work.

Here's the folder I use: http://www.amazon.ca/Canadian-Cents...p/144023261XA bit pricey (although mine was free from a teller, wow!) but it holds every small cent date, plus it has a section for the various obverses to be displayed too. I'd recommend it over a blank Dansco but it does cost a lot and I haven't found it for sale locally. |

I have no idea why I didn't think of that. Must be the pain meds. I'll give that a shot.

That's the one I went with. Looking back for what I needed I should have gone with the biggest empty binder and purchased the cent, nickel, and dime pages separately like I did with my 3 albums of reject Kennedy halves. I used the thermal shipping label printer at work and the list of Canadian cent years and varieties listed on the forum to make what I think is pretty complete cent album. All of the coins in the album I have found here in WI CRH and in pocket change over the years.       |

Well that photo spread pretty much convinced me. I ordered a 7107 for my Canadian cents. I use the Avery clear mailing labels for my dates though. Did that for my Lincoln cents and Jefferson nickels for the extra dates past 2009. I figure it won't be any big deal to do the same for blank album labeling for Canadian cents. Looking forward to being able to display them properly! |

nice looking set Jack Jeckel Shy shark .. here is a link to when I started my sets. I am much farther along now. https://goccf.com/t/134621I have not tried to label them ... because I not sure if I can make it look good .. and there are some varieties I might add. Also I am trying to get the right blank pages so I can add the large cents .. and the 5 cent silver coins. |

Well I guess my idea wasn't terribly original. :-) That does look good though! My brother works for a graphics and sign company and made me a gold colored vinyl "Canadian" graphic to put on the book to designate it as such. I also made my date labels for the pages. I collect the varieties and have a good assortment already, so I'm getting pretty excited about completing this like I did with my Lincoln Cent set. Looking forward to getting the book now! |

Well, since Dansco doesn't make a Canadian cents album, I had my brother make me a gold decal similar in color and using the same font as the album cover does to "make" my own Canadian cents album. Since the word "Cents" on the spine was already up near the brass rivet thingy and there was no room to put "Canadian" before it without covering up the rivet, I had to make a little modification so I could get it on there too. I think it looks pretty good.   Edited by skyshark124

I use uni safe albums for my Canadian collection. Nice book, easy to add coins and pages. Just wish I could get a whole collection in one book instead of buying two per collection. I like what skysharks brother did. Looks sharp. |

Did you get the little blue ones or the big brown ones? I have the brown ones. Just added the dollar and quarter album to my collection. Looking for a lot of silver quarters and dollars for those albums now. Posted in the CCF trade sections. Hope I can add to that collection over the next while. They're coming along nice.....love the collections.
