<p>[QUOTE=&quot;74Teen, post: 1659907, member: 44241&quot;]Just picked up my very first Dansco album this morning.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been doing 2X2s in pages since the coin collecting bug reactivated itself. Well those, and ad few of the old blue Whitman folders that I&#039;ve had forever.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, I digress...</p><p><br /></p><p>While at my LCS today rooting through the junk boxes, the owner commented that a lot of the stuff I was looking at had come from collections he&#039;d purchased. He purchases the collections, pulls out the key dates and really nice stuff, then a lot of the rest just gets tossed into boxes. Then he commented that one half of the wall full of albums and folders were used, and that he gives his regular customers really good deals on them, and since he has stacks of boxes of them at home and in the back, that I should pick a couple out. So I got a new Whitman Lincoln Cents album for three bucks.</p><p><br /></p><p>And my first Dansco for five bucks!!!! A used 7070. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, I had to pick up a couple of coins to put in it, so I got some ratty, inexpensive examples of a half dime, some old dimes, a couple nickels and an Indian cent to augment what few I have here at home already.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll probably never fill it, but my long-term goal is as many proofs as possible and high grades for everything else. That should take a while...</p><p><br /></p><p>For what it&#039;s worth, the construction of the Dansco doesn&#039;t seem to impress me as much as I thought it would. I kinda like the way the Whitmans are made more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
