I think you are on to something. Maybe the demand we perceive is not really there. Time for some research.

It is possible there isn't much demand, like you said Ed. It may be that more and more people are buying into the slab/label craziness. With older/more valuable coins I would send it in to get authenticated, but otherwise I would buy the coin, not the holder it's in.

I don't see how the demand could not be there...but I guess more people could be keeping them in slabs. Or they have their broken their type set up to fill all their other coin sets?

I just don't care for slabs that much I'd rather have it in my book

I was told by a retailer that deals with Dansco all the time that he was
told the 7070 wasn't coming back. ?

Take that with a grain of salt. It's back door second hand info, but you never know.

For the conspiracy theorist... The TPGs have paid off the album makers.

Honestly for many of the 1800s coins and he barber series, the value of a nice grade example means it is kind of scary to just drop it in an album. I can see why many would prefer slabs, and also buying graded coins in slabs.

Demand can be a funny thing. Maybe there are 300 people out there that really want a 7070 and only 2-3 come up a week for sale. So there is a pretty good fight for them driving up the value. But then if Dansco did a run of 1000 albums, they'd all be bought and the pent up demand would be gone and the albums would sit there mostly unsold.

How about someone on CCF looking into producing them? Maybe even have a CCF line of albums to benefit CCF? If I was not working n a book, I would look into this myself. NoHope made the CCF coins - I have to wonder if albums would not be less problem to research/make since they are basically cardboard and acetate?
Actually, when I get my nookout the door and have more time on my hands, I want to try making some plexiglass "pages" I can put in a 3-ring. It will take awhile to drill all the holes, but when its done, it will not allow them to tone.

I would love to see an album that hybrids the traditional album with
some low profile capsule for the coin, like "Kointainers". This way
you isolate the coin from air, cardboard pages, and moving plastic
slides. "Kointainer" capsules are so thin, that you almost cannot
tell they are on the coin. An album page that has one side of the
capsule built into the page, and then the coin drops in with the other
half of the capsule... That would be awesome. It would look like your
standard "Dansco", but the coins would be sealed so much better.

This would certainly cost a bit more, but I'd pay it in a heartbeat.
