TikiFrance New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 12/02/2014 3:19 pm Hello, I was previously thinking about getting a Dansco album for the Lincoln Cents from 1909 to the present. However, as the cents are not worth much right now, is it best to get a cheaper folder? Or should I invest right away to keep the Cents in the best shape? Thank you Report this Post to the Staff

Pick up an albulm, some will say two. This way you can keep upgrading and enjoy your set more (better eye appeal, both sides visible, no oily finger prints...). The second set would be for your lower tier cents. Have fun. Report this Post to the Staff

If someone is just "testing the collecting waters," a folder is fine.

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 12/02/2014 10:02 pm As already noted you could use the Search tab for many posts on this subject. But just in case you don't, keep away from Folders if possible. If you think about it, you push the coins in with your thumb or finger. You can not see the reverse. The front is exposed to touch, spit, cough, etc every time you open one. A Whitman Album is large enough to add extra pages so you can put all the Cents in one from 1909 to present.

Tryna Pillar of the Community United States 937 Posts	Posted 12/03/2014 11:24 am I just pulled all my LWC from the album and put them in 2X2. My red ones were slowing turning red/brown. Not sure if this will stop it but worth a shot. Report this Post to the Staff
