True, the most critical information seems to have been translated without too many errors. And if I were searching for information on, say, a Korean or Thai web site, I would certainly appreciate such a translation tool.

Lighthouse makes albums for Euro coins and some U.S. coins. Canadian Wholesale Supply makes coin albums and folders for Canadian and U.S. coins. Whitman just started making some folders for Canadian money. Other than that, most albums are universal types, for all coins.

Other potential sources are World Coins or Ginza Coins, both in Tokyo. You can contact them at info@coins.co.jp or ginza-co@ginzacoins.co.jp. Based on having been in both shops, I'm sure they each have someone who will respond in English to any inquiry.

I've never seen a foreign coin folder or album (other than Canadian) in stock at any US dealer's shop or website, nor on ebay or any other auction site.

Hontonai, thanks for the additional Japanese Coin Album links. Maybe next time I'm in Tokyo I'll have a look...but that's not happening anytime soon. I did end up ordering Japanese Coin albums from this site that Collector1966 recommended: http://www.rakuten.co.jp/icoins/434477/438215/438216/ but ended up over paying for the overseas shipping fees--but happy to get the albums I needed.
