Thoughts on moving my 7070 set to an Intercept Album

<p>[QUOTE="stlnats, post: 8078941, member: 41066"]By way of full disclosure, I'm primarily a reasonably advanced and focussed national banknote collector but with fewer buying opportunities during the last couple of years have been working to complete/upgrade my Dansco 7070 type set. The original set which had been started when I was in college and then neglected for several decades is now complete, altho there are a couple of upgrades I'd like to make. At some point I had bought a second album for my "left overs" and a few better/more interesting coins so it's also within a dozen or so coins for completion. While I really like the older Dansco product, I'm thinking about consolidating both books into an Intercept album which is more up to date with several coins not represented in Dansco. This would produce one nice - albeit mostly high grade circulated - set and a second one in lower grade either for swapping or starting a new collection (e.g. I'm partial to a couple of dates such as 1825, 1840 and 1876 and have coins which could be the basis for a "year set.")</p><p><br /></p><p>I'm not familiar with Intercept and would appreciate anyone's thoughts about them and any experience that you've had to date.
