<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 600412, member: 66"]A lot of people bust open mint sets to put coins in their Dansco albums. They've done it for years because the mint sets tended to have better quality coins than they could get in bank rolls. Even after the mint sets switched to satin finish in 2005 they still did so and just put satin finish coins in instead of business strikes. My guess is that in a few years they will regret not searching out the quality business strikes as well because I believe that eventually the albums will start coming with holes for both and sets won't be considered "complete" unless they have both. Collectors will be scrambling to find the quality post 2004 business strikes and they will be rare because the ones put into circulation will be worn, there won't be rolls that were put back, and they won't be able to get them out of mint sets either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
