jbuck Moderator United States 188560 Posts	Posted 02/05/2009 4:43 pm Which ones does she have? Do they have the picture of the coin on the cover? The older ones do not. I cannot remember, but there might be a date on the paper cover page.

pls Rest in Peace United States 1729 Posts	Posted 02/05/2009 5:28 pm My local coin dealer has tons of older obsolete Whitman folders, many with incomplete dates and the wrong-size holes for later dates (of non-USA coins), and he sends them with me at a buck apiece. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 02/05/2009 5:52 pm There are no coin outlines on the covers,are the dates on the inside page the date it was made or the date it was copyrighted? Some of the dates are in the 40's and 50's. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

I hate to be Mr Obvious here, but I would look and see what the date is on the last labeled hole. Or at least the last labeled hole with mintage statistics. I would bet you dollars to donuts that is when the folder was printed... (this is assuming that they have the dates printed below the holes...) Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 02/06/2009 2:48 pm If your referring to Whitman blue folders that have slots for coins and you can not see the reverse of the coin, those are really not worth anything. I mean no one usually wants them. Regardless of how old they are. Maybe some day in the distant future they would be worth over a dollar each, but for now most people throw them in the garbage. Just make sure there are no coins in them. Report this Post to the Staff
