Ok, so I know this is a shot in the dark, but I'm looking for a few old Whitman albums for Great Britain. Here's the ones I am missing: 9530 British Farthings 1860 - 1901 9532 British Halfpennies 1860 - 1901 9533 British Halfpennies 1902 - 1936 And all of the 3 British pennies albums Also, if no one has the albums, I'd take the folders for British Halfpennies 1860 to 1901 and British Pennies 1860 to 1880 or British Pennies 1860 to 1901 (I know two diff ones were made) I know the albums come up on Ebay sometimes, but sellers want anywhere from 60 to 100 bucks for them and I just can't swing that :/ I have a few of the folders and two of the albums (later farthings and halfpennies) and really want the other albums to house my G.B. bronze collection. if anyone has them OR knows a local store that has them laying there collecting dust, I'd be really happy to hear form you!
That is a going to be a tough search. Are you collecting the albums? or are you wanting the albums because you collect thos coins? I have the Penny albums but I'm afraid you can't have them, my set is in them.
DeOrc lives over there. He may have a cheaper source where he could round some up for you. That sounds like a neat collection. I'm not into foreign stuff all that much but I really like British coinage, old and modern.

Very good source there, Carl. Thank you for sharing that. I am looking for british albums as well. I can find the Euro fairly easily, but not for the Pennies I have. I may give him an email as well. Dan
No luck with Whitman, they aren't responding. If anyone comes across these albums, please grab them for me and I'll be more then glad to pay whatever you had to put out and a bit extra for your troubles!
Hi Vess let me know that you were looking for them, sorry to say they are not that easy to find anymore, and you will hate me as some 4 months ago I gave away a stack of them Your best bet will be Ebay UK http://coins.shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html...m270.l1313&_sop=1&_odkw=folders&_osacat=58520
NOOOOO, only if wasn't 4 month late! If you come across any more, PLEASE let me know, I'd really appreciate it!
I am not sure if you are still looking but my grandad recently passed away and had some coins in the attic, lol. Great Britain Pennies Collection 1881 to 1901, 1902 to 1929 and 1930 to 1966. They are in the blue folders but the coins are not in mint condition...at all. mark_handford@yahoo.co.uk if interested.
