Canadian Albums...what Do You Use?

i use unisafe books. kind of like dansco books. you slide out the little sleeve with pockets, put in your coins and slide it back. they run about $20 each

For me, it depends on the value of the coin. Low value coins go into jars or small boxes. Coins having some value go into tubes. The next level is 2x2's. And I like this the best because my collection is constantly changing, and I regularly like to check items either with a loupe or a microscope. Coins in an album are difficult to remove, replace, view or re-arrange. That said, my best pieces go into an Eagle album using Eagle holders.

I use Gardmaster as well price is reasonable nice layout. What I don't like is the choice they make for the pages. They include most major varieties but exclude others. Some are not correct 25 cent 2002 for example has a 2nd jubilee spot, the only second Jubilee I can find is the colourised version , but they don't include any other's. If any one knows why let me know.

I just use plain 'ol cardboard 2x2 flips in plastic pages.

Oh, and one other thing.

I *never* use the plastic coin pages for the 2x2's -- I find there is no "give" to the pockets (not all 2x2's are 2x2!), and over time, these "hard" pages dry out or something and tend to get fragile and easily torn.

Instead, I use Ultra-Pro's pages for slides, available at most photo supply stores -- around $8 for 15 in a pack.

2x2's slide in perfectly and if you put them in the "wider" way, they sit nicely in the pockets.
