    How are they compared to Whitman ?

    Ive never seen then before and i see they are cheaper then the whitman (although i like the blue better then the green of these) but thought id see what others thought of them.

    My experience with Whitman album was not that positive, but that was 15 years ago. I bought a couple of these for my cheaper sets. Assuming that their manufacturing specs are adhered to (acid free, etc.), I would rate them acceptable for your less valuable coins (typically circulated). I would not chance them for valuable coins.

    cool thats what i was wondering. My mom does alot of scrapbooking with acid free stuff and works at an agriculture lab.... maybe ill see if there are any sort of tests that can be done to determine if they are really acid free.

    but yeah i have a collection of Good-Fine Buffalo nickels id like in an album... maybe ill go with one of these

    I've seen several posts in many places with the same question. They do have attractive prices.

    I just wish someone, somewhere would buy one and report back!
