I purchased all four of the Lincoln penny coin folders for collectors (1909 to the present) for my 8-year old grandson for Christmas; since they brought back memories of when I was his age. I was uncertain, however, in this modern digital age, whether he would be interested in them. As it turns out, he was very excited about them. Then, my own son (his father), pulled his own Lincoln penny collection out of storage, which he had started about 30 years ago when I gave him similar penny folders for collecting. Among others, it had a 1909 Lincoln penny, which was the first year they were coined; and for variety, a steel 1943 Lincoln penny. (To save copper for the war effort, the U.S. Treasury coined most of the 1943 pennies in steel, which are bluish-gray in color.) I highly recommend these, and other, coin collecting folders as a gift for a young boys and girls. But then, of course, you should also give them, say, $20 worth of Lincoln pennies in rolls from the bank, so they can go looking searching through them for the pennies they need to begin filling the folders. As I child, I would periodically return these unused pennies to the bank to get more pennies to repeat the process. So, this also led to my first banking transactions; and, of course, I traded pennies with friends, so this also led to my first trading experiences. Something old, something new; something borrowed, something blue. Kodiak (1949)

A compact and inexpensive way to organize your coins

I bought the entire collection of these folders that is available at the moment. They all arrived within a day of each other, as expected. New users may think they seem small but they are a very compact and inexpensive way to keep your coins organized. A great tool for the beginner or the experienced coin collector. Be sure to lay the binder on a flat, hard surface like a desk or kitchen counter when entering your coins and you should have no problems.

Great for starters or misc Projects!

Perfect folders for the project I am doing. I bought #1 #2 #3 they all came in great condition and were delivered on Memorial Day very impressed. They were cheap witch is good for I am going to frame them in a frame that can easily have the glass slid to side so you can put any new coins in them. I would suggest if you are just starting out or are making a second set for a misc project to get these. If you want to see the back and front of the coins or would like to have it better protected I would say buy the Albums and not folders.

It covers every Lincoln penny to 1940, however this makes it nearly impossible to complete...

The penny book does contain a section for the 1909 V.D.B SanFrancisco minted coin. I have seen many other books that don't even place that in it because it is such a rare and expensive coin. There were only a few hundred thousand of the coins minted and the average price for one is about a thousand dollars ($950). I understand that it is one of the pennies that were minted, but BEWARE that completing this book is already a challenge, but the V.D.B S penny makes it insanely difficult.

Whitman Lincoln Cents collection (1909-1940) is a good quality folder for the new and old collectors alike. Each of its 3 pages has 30 slots for holding a total of 90 coins minted during this area. Each slot has printed below it the date and mint of the coin it is intended to hold and how many of the coin was minted. This folder also has one extra slot at the end labeled "varieties" for either displaying the back or some other special coin you may have. Read the directions and inserting the coins is no problem. My only note is that this may not make a great "tooth fairy" album because most of the coins needed for it are harder to find (wheat pennies and war pennies) but if you have a huge 5 gallon bucket of old pennies your great grandfather collected this is probably for you =)

Amazing price and awesome product

Does what it's suppose to do and that is store your wheat pennies and keep them safe just a heads put mine had a hole in the back of one of the coin slots no big deal but it was slightly worrying when first opening up the package. As for if I would recommend this product to others most definitely although being cheaply made it does what it is suppose to do and at good price. Also it had free shiping!

coin collector for years

Having worked at a cash register and with money for so long, I've always been fascinated with different coins. I've had all my coins in small bags and coin pockets but I finally got tired of sorting through them and trying to see what doubles I had. I was happy to put them into a nice stiff book like design, and it held the coins really well. I was finally able to get rid of the doubles and triples that I had. As soon as I can I will be purchasing the others, from the other two penny ones to the quarters and nickles. Excellent buy.

Damaged item!!

Product delivered damaged. The box was ok but one of the folders has a hole in it. For what I paid for it I’m not gonna bother returning it but you can believe I won’t do further business with them

Penny Collector's dream

It's sophisticatedly built good quality once you put a coin in though trying to get it out is pretty rough and then putting it back in it gets a little looser N Looser as you take the coins in and out of the little round slots but it works really good.It's definitely for a serious coin collector excuse me penny collector.
