[QUOTE="ldhair, post: 1157038, member: 11540"]I started using the Dansco albums when they first came out and still do. I learned a few lessons from it. In my opinion, Red and RB copper should not be stored in these albums. They will darken over time. They may also gain spots from the cardboard dust from the album. Proofs of any type metal can also gain spots as well. For the most part, brown copper is safe, if the album is stored away from high humidity and temperature swings. Copper needs to stay dry. Coins that have been messed with in the past and put in an album can do crazy things. Sometimes a cleaned copper coin will gain a little more of a natural look after years in an album. After saying all that, I still keep an album going for Memorial cents. They look great in the album and I have little invested in it. Just my thoughts.[/QUOTE]
