I've been using these coin books for most of my life. In that time, they have hardly changed at all. The coins are hard to push into the holes, but it's supposed to be this way. Put the book on a clean hard surface, like a table or counter top, and PUSH hard. I use a lighter to push them in once I've got them in as far as they'll go with my hand. They are designed this way to keep them from falling out. The backside of the slot is only covered by a thin piece of paper that makes up the book's cover. This isn't an issue if you put the coins in correctly. If you do it incorrectly, you run the risk of pushing through the paper backing of the slot. I've used these books for years, and have had dozens of them, and never had a problem.One thing to keep in mind: once the coin is in, you should leave it there. If you put in a coin, and take it out, it won't hold another coin nearly as well. If you get one that might not be a permanent, and think you'll replace it down the road, don't put it in just yet. Other than that, these books are a great value. My family loves them, and it really does give us all something to do as a pastime.
For all you people who have a huge stash of coins especially or for just starting to collect this a must have. With this if you have any "clean" rare coins this keeps them clean and no damage is done. For everyone who has Quarter Folders aren't those hard to put in. Well, this is 10 times easier to put in.
We love the Whitman coin folders! They are a great way to store your coin collection. My 7- and 9-year-olds enjoy trying to complete an entire folder and they look forward to the new coins being released. It would be even better if offered several folders as a set to purchase together.When adding coins to the folder, just make sure the folder is on a hard surface and the coin is facing the direction you want since they are not easy to remove. This is good because the coins will not fall out of the folder, but makes it difficult to replace coins if you find one in better condition than the one you have already added.I recommend these folders.
!965-2004 Official Whitmans Roosevelt Dimes book. I was skeptical at first on purchasing this due to the past reviews of it being hard to insert the coins. However, after receiving it I immediately tried entering several dimes I had within the dates and they snapped into place pretty easily. It seems like it is just the technique or on how you're trying to push them in, but if you put on side of the coin in and gently push on the opposite side then it should go in with ease. The book is fairly well made and with it being hard covered it should last a long time. I would definitely suggest for coin collecting!
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.
Well put together and at a decent price. This is what I used and my grandfather used when he was a kid. Whitman has been around for a long time and they do a good job. The reason I only 4 stared was because after a couple of times of removing a coin it doesn't keep it tight. Great product.
Picked this up and several other coin folders from Whitman and I am very happy with them. This Dime coin folder holds the coins well and the coins sit just right that you can insert them with your finger and feel secure that it wont pop off. Recommended!
As always, I'm quite satisfied with this Whitman Coin Folder. For the price, you can be assured you're getting a good product for your money. These folders are great for beginning coin collectors and children; I fondly remember the folders my father gave me as a child, and I continue to use them to this day. An excellent, and somewhat educational gift for children!
