I am contemplating a collection of the 1875-2025 Standing Helvetia type Swiss 1-franc coins (KM24 in silver and KM24a in copper-nickel). For the 1875-1967 silver coins I would pay $7.00 apiece and up; prefer Fine or better. No stains, spots, damage. More for the 1800s dates. For the 1968-present copper-nickel coins I would pay $1.00 apiece as long as they're VF or better with decent eye appeal (no stains, spots, damage). I'm also considering the use of a blank US quarters album to put them in. I know they would fit, but I'm not sure how snugly, since a Swiss franc is 23.3 mm and a US quarter is 24.3 mm. Would the Swiss coins stay put in the album ports, or would they jiggle around a bit? Anybody know?
