sirdizzy Valued Member United States 461 Posts	Posted 08/24/2014 1:50 pm I have been wanting to do one of these for years but never got around to starting one. I really eventually want to do the Dansco 7210 and 7211 albums for these but those albums are expensive and hard to find. I found a old beat up Whitman bookshelf album (my first bookshelf album) and it was cheap so I thought great as I don't have much to start with and it goes through basically the late 50's and Elizabeth II. As you can see its mostly small coinage right now like large cents, small cents, nickels and dimes. I don't have any halves or dollars yet (I have a loonie but this set stops long before the loonie came out). I just don't have a good market for Canadian coinage in the US going to have to resort to ebay a lot. Report this Post to the Staff

Harmonica Pillar of the Community Canada 1118 Posts	Posted 08/24/2014 7:18 pm I don't see any place for the centennial reverse? I could probably spare a few for you but I see there is no place for them. Is there a place for the Nickel nickel or any other commemoratives? Report this Post to the Staff

sirdizzy Valued Member United States 461 Posts	Posted 08/24/2014 8:53 pm Yea I am thinking the album is early 1960's or late 1950's, I picked it up for $10 with shipping seemed a great starter set. The only commemorative nickel spot it has is 1951 George VI. It does do a lot of the nickels like tombac and steel though. Report this Post to the Staff
chequer Pillar of the Community Canada 4227 Posts	Posted 08/24/2014 10:33 pm It's a great project. The issue you'll have is that the easiest types for you to come by won't have a slot. E.g. the Elizabeth II ten cent piece, you have the latest type, but there are three different profiles for Elizabeth (types) before the one you have. Still, you shouldn't have too much of a problem putting together a really nice type set. Good luck! Report this Post to the Staff
