Wow, I just lucked out and found a like-new obsolete Dansco Canadian type album on line today. I've been looking for one of these for ages! I had pretty much given up on it until I was on the PCGS Message Boards and saw the topic come up, so I Googled it just for the heck of it.
Can't wait to get it in hand and start filling it up!

I settled for a partially filled Whitman album a couple of months ago. At the same time an empty Dansco went for over $100 on ebay. Too much for me! |

Great pick! We will require pictures, though. |

I have one of the Canada 7210 type albums. I would love to find some pages for the newer varieties as mine only goes to 1968. I saw one at a LCS that was full and went to the modern coins so I know they are around. It was complete and nice price on it also.
So I guess you know how long I've had it. And my Charlton is about that old as a couple other Canadian coin books. I would love to buy at there prices

The album arrived today. It must be an older album because it only goes through George VI.
The album was in pretty good shape although a small chunk of the second page was torn out at the binding and the other two pages were pretty worn in that same spot, so I repaired all three pages with vinyl tape.
I'll post pictures once I get to my safe deposit box and pick out some pieces to begin. This is going to be a major challenge, even without any Elizabeth II pieces. The 1947 ML fifty cents and dollar will be big ticket items as will the 1911 Godless fifty cents, in halfway decent condition, if I can even find one.

Yeah, I've got to get on this project. I'll try to get to my safe deposit box this weekend to pick out some coins to get it started. I kind of forgot about collecting for a while....

I do that I go through phases I hadn't bought any coins this year until the last month as I was concentrating on other things.

Still haven't gotten around to getting photos. I have to borrow my other half's digital camera to get them. So far I have placed 17 pieces in it. I can fill all of the ten cents and silver five cents but to do that I would have to remove them from their respective albums, and I'm not sure if I want to do that.
Here's what's in it so far:
Victoria
1876-H Victoria Large Cent - AU
1892 Twenty-Five Cents - VF
1898 Fifty Cents - VF
Edward VII
1902 Large Cent - AU Brown with trace of red
1910 Twenty-Five Cents - AU (former PCGS AU50)
1908 Fifty Cents - VF
George V
1916 Large Cent - MS red brown
1925 Small Cent - AU red brown
1928 Five Cents - MS (former ICCS MS63)
1929 Twenty-Five Cents - XF/AU
1917 Fifty Cents - XF
George VI
1942 Small Cent - AU red brown
1941 Five Cents - AU (former PCGS AU58)
1942 Five Cents Tombac - MS
1945 Five Cents Steel - Gem MS
1951 Five Cents Steel - MS
1937 Twenty-Five Cents - AU colorfully toned
1938 Fifty Cents - AU
1951 Fifty Cents - MS colorfully toned (former ICCS MS64)
