Unsure how many people here are pursuing older coin albums I saw in an email update that Lange published Volume 2 of his book titled Coin Collecting Albums: A Complete History and Catalog this year. Volume 2 focuses on Library of Coins and Treasury of Coins albums. http://www.amazon.com/Coin-Collecti...ums+by+langeVolume 1 focused on The National Coin Album & Related Products by Beistle, Raymond and Meghrig http://www.amazon.com/National-Rela...ums+by+langePassing this information along in case anyone is interested. -MV

That's really interesting. I didn't know such works existed.

I too think it's interesting. However, not sure how many people collect them but for those that do, there they are.

Huh. A book about the albums that hold the actual coins. I feel like I stepped into some sort of Inception thing ;) But anyways like the review says, since I am into Dansco albums, these aren't for me. Would be interesting if there was a book about Dansco albums US and foreign.

I have a few older Raymond's National Coin Albums and pages, I don't really collect them, I did give David a few of some of the cooler dime holders I came across from 1950's era savings & loan banks - he seemed to like them. I also found a few recent tiny dime albums from Whitman publishing in one of my lock boxes. The 50th Anniversary mini commemorative guide book of US coins, I got three of them, two containing 1947 dimes in Unc.
