Yep, looks like some work ahead of me. Are the slides pretty easy to put in? I won't have any cotton gloves till next week so I'll have to wait to put any coins in it.

UPDATE:

Strangely I just don't feel comfortable with this.

I decided to put this album up for sale in the selling section if anyone is interested. The album is for 1999-2008 P&D Statehood Quarters set.

I've been collecting coins on and off since I was 13 and 2x2 fold and staple flips are all I have ever used.

Ah, understood.

I can tell you that I have used Dansco albums for over thirty years with no regrets. However, you have to be comfortable and happy with what you use. Do not let me talk you into anything you may later regret.

I know most collectors really put a lot of stock in these Dansco's and speak highly of them. Don't get me wrong, I think the display is very attractive. I guess for me its my comfort level of trying something different with my coins and the coins would have to be handled a good bit more than putting into flips. Plus the sliders worry me silly. But anyways it's still available if anyone wants to buy it.

I have a problem getting those slides out so stick to Whitman. And if your into Dansco for appearances, remember that most people just hide them away too.

Does not matter to me. The only person I want to impress is myself.
