Dansco 7070 Type Set - The Beginning of a new challenge...

Congrats!
I've been intrigued by the idea of a world album, but the cost of some of those albums can be prohibitive (the Dansco ones haven't been printed in many years so some are $100+ for an empty used album). The one more affordable album that is available is for world crowns. It only has blank holes (of several sizes) so it allows for plenty of different possibilities.

I have another Dansco that is simply labeled "Silver dollars". It is similar to the album you are describing, just holes. Of course they're all the same size (ASE won't fit) but I like it for it's versatility and it keeps everything organized in one place that is easily stored. You may find you actually prefer that world crown book, and that way you can define your own collection too.

 

I also have a blank dime sized book, but that one is more limited to what can go there (pretty much just dimes ). I'll have to give it some thought as to what direction I want to go next.

 

Last spot filled with this 1917 type 1 SLQ.

Nice work!

 

A small update: I switched the Buffalo Nickel (previous one moved to another album). This evened out my NGC vs PCGS ratio.

Nice job! I just bought a 70/70 so am about to begin my own little saga.

 

Quick update: I replaced the Capped Bust Half Dollar with this example that was a gift from a friend.

Got this little beauty in the mail yesterday.
Just 4 more coins missing to complete the 7070.

 

This is the next step to fill my 7070.
Now I am missing just the two SLD‘s.
