Message:: [QUOTE="Victor, post: 446496, member: 5454"]I have quite a few of them.  In fact it is my favorite style album.    I have Lincoln cents #2 and #3.  #1 was for IHC.I have a pretty good number of Barber dimes in one and no problems.  I have a very nice set of AU/BU Mercury dimes missing only the 16-D.  It was a partial set of Bu dimes I bought already in the Library of Coins album.  Now some of the ones I thought were bright white when I put them in the LOC album have lightly toned.  I could be mistaken on this because it is in a safe deposit box.  I only see them 3 or 4 times a year.I also recently picked up a Library of coins album for Roosevelt dimes and will be transferring a complete silver set into that.Other than the Mercs the rest of the albums contain circulated coins and they have not toned.  If you are planning on putting bright white silver coins or brilliant red cents into an old LOC album I'd watch for toning if you don't like toned material.  But if you are using the album for circulated coins I wouldn't worry about it at all.I can't believe I paid only $1 for my Barber dime album in excellent condition. The two Lincoln cent albums were $7 each.  The Roosevelt dime album was also about $1 but it has some light coffee stains.  That yellow paper they used for the pages gets stained or damaged easily.  It also picks up black specs, dust particles, dirt and other annoying marks.[/QUOTE]
