Why does Dansco make a spot in their album for a 1922 plain? It's an error coin. actually, at least in my album, the only error coin listed.
Might be something really silly to complain about but can anyone think of a good reason why it's in there? Something that's bothered me. I feel better now that I vented. Thank you.

It could be as simple as for spacing. If the no d wasn't there, the 1935 and the 1947 sets would get split between pages. Just an educated guess from me.  |

I hadn't thought about that option. I suppose spacing is as good a reason as any.

It's a die variety which I have no intention of collecting.

I have albums with a spot for the '55 DD. I've plugged the holes with regular LDS examples to keep me calm...  |

You can debate this until the cows come home. Many collectors consider it part of the set, others do not. |

I guess you could collect a 1922 "Weak D" and stick one in there, cross out "Plain" and write "Weak D" in there in place of it. Or stick a bronze Denver mint medal in there or a blank planchet.  |

I always plugged that hole with a weak D. Same with the 55 double die, used a poor man's DD with the one 5 doubled.

My Albums have places for the 22 plain, 55 and 72 Doubled Dies, piles of the 60's and 82's, etc. Wonder when they'll make a place for the wide and Close AM coins? I'd like to find out who at those companies that make Albums with all that stuff so I could just yell a them. Bet they don't even collect coins. |

Agreed with the OP. That spot drives me crazy. Drives me even crazier that I just lost out on a 1922 weak D, I was dying to win on ebay. [OO!]. |
