<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom B, post: 2015579, member: 11854&quot;]Dansco never set out to make a <i>complete</i> type set from the 7070; rather, they set out to make a <i>mass marketable</i> type set with the 7070.&nbsp; These are two very different things.&nbsp; If you want a much more complete type set album then you should buy the two part Whitman Classic type set album that contains holes for much tougher and more expensive coins.&nbsp; However, that album never sold well because of the coins required whereas the Dansco 7070 dominated the type set album niche.</p><p><br /></p><p>Why did they choose four commem slots and not so many Seated Liberty slots?&nbsp; Well, I think most collectors do not care about the 25 or so Seated Liberty design modifications and would rather not have an album that is one-half or one-third based upon the Seated Liberty design.&nbsp; Also, by having four commem slots the page might look more aesthetically pleasing with its symmetry to the half dollar row above it.&nbsp; Lastly, the commems are popular, relatively inexpensive, big and can be good looking, which taken all together is a strong selling point for the album.</p><p><br /></p><p>Remember, Dansco was not out to produce a complete album.&nbsp; They were out to produce a great seller.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
