Then open the album in landscape orientation, so the reverse are the correct way up when you flip the page?. This has one drawback, in that you need to snip off the finger tab if you're using Lighthouse or similar. The Ox moves slowly, but the Earth is patient.

If not, just make sure your rotate the coin 90 degrees when you holder it.

Sap Moderator Australia 16810 Posts	Posted 02/23/2023 6:33 pm There are album pages you can buy which have been designed with "landscape" page-flipping (like a notebook) in mind: you can insert the coins in the "side" of the 2x2 pocket, rather than the top. Here's some for sale by PrintFile, my usual supplier of album pages. Of course, it would be easier all round if the Americans simply started making their coins the "right way up" like everybody else does these days... Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

The earlier pieces will always be a problem. Besides, we cannot even get rid of our useless cent or low denomination paper. Asking to go from to is a bit of an ask!
