    I need help in finding Euro coin albums... I am looking for albums that are specific to the coin. Most of what I am finding online is like the Vista Lighthouse and Dansco albums, which are annual sets that are inclusive of each country that use the Euro. I did find a 1 Euro cent album, 2 Euro cent album, etc from a dealer in Germany, but I live in So Cal and the shipping is horrendous! Any suggestions for US suppliers, alternatives? I thought about using blank US coin pages and building an album. But the diameter of the Euro coin(s) do not match any US coins produced. Thanks for your input in advance... ;)

    Hmm, I am in Europe but collect my euro and cent coins in "generic" boxes and binders. :) Apart from Lighthouse, I know that some people around here like the Safe system (particularly the Premium series), but I have no idea what dealers in the US could have them ...

    Hey, you don't have to do the blank US-coin-pages thing: Dansco makes blank millimeter pages (16mm to 55mm) and blank "World Coin Library" albums! I made albums for "Less Commonly Collected Coins", and you can, too. My coins, however, are kept in T-size, A-size, and H-size airtites (one size per album page), and I used double-sided tape to stick TWO blank pages together to accommodate the thickness of the airtites. The 44mm Dansco pages fit the H-size airtites, for example.

    I'm guessing that you aren't going to go THAT far, so it'll be SOOO much cheaper for you to do! I also labeled the pages with clear labels I ran off of my printer.

    About the album covers: Dansco places these little paper flyers in their albums and slip covers that they sell. The LAST item listed on the flyer is a LABELING service that they provide (I think it's still there). They can label the blank albums for you in the same "brush"-style font that you see on the covers of their other, pre-made albums. I wish I had known that when I made my Korean albums, but what I did to label mine I think turned out better anyway.

    You can see my albums here:

    Good Luck!
