Franklin and started a British North America Whitman cent folder!

For info on British North America see-- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_North_America

I think it is possible to fill all the holes if you have any hole fillers . Let us know we have CTU to trade!

Nice!

WOW

I've seen multiple Canadian purchases from you lately... how is this book going now?

I had one of those PEI ones. I'll take a look around for it. May have sold it though... awful memory!

Watching the mailbox for ----

Newfoundland:
1865 - Good = 3$
1876H - Very good = 6$
1896 - Very Good = 5$
1907 - Fine = 7$
1917 - Very Fine = 4$
1919 - Fine = 5$
1920 - Fine = 5$
1929 - Very Good = 3$
1938 - Very Good = 1$
1942 - Very Good = 1$
1943 - Fine = 2$

Prince Edward's Island
1871 - Very Good = 3$

New Brunswick
1861 - Good = 3$
1864 - Good = 4$

Nova Scotia
1861 - Very Good = 5$
1864 - Good = 3$

Total = 67$

I think it's funny that the PEI section has one coin but there are two holes because of the obverse thing...
I have that coin, but it is grungy. I found it in a dealer junk bin and thought hey this is unlike any other Canadian large cent I have... that may have been my first venture into these BNA coins. And now I've got you hooked.

That is really cool! I never even knew some of these Whitman folders existed! Where do you find them?

My wife go me the book Guide to Vintage Coin Folders http://books.google.com/books?id=fGpzPvuNDy8C&printsec=frontcover&dq=guide+to+vintage+folders&hl=en&sa=X&ei=RI0dT6uVKMWqiAKjstDHCA&ved=0CDAQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=guide%20to%20vintage%20folders&f=false
The folder we are filling from Ebay. Also I found most coin stores have a stack of used out of print album and folders.

Got some new ones today. Updated photos.

CHECK THIS OUT! I recently bought some old Whitman folders and this pamphlet was inside one of them!

Nice. Well, that will finish up the Newfoundland small cents....then for the Obverse filler, just pick up the cheapest one of any year whenever you go to the coin shop next.

Updated photos.

Only one more Nova Scotia cent to go! BTW, just for the heck of it, I just checked at the usual places here in town; nobody even carries that folder and it can't be found anywhere. But if I ever decide to get one, I'm sure somebody would have one at the local coin shows; they usually have tons of stuff and people are always selling partial albums.

U.S. coins with mintages as low as those would be ... legendary.

Updated photo!

The coin store gave this to us for free.

Wow! All you need is the 1862 Nova Scotia Large Cent and your album is finished. (Filling the obverse slots should be very easy and cheap)

Looks like I had the same photo twice. I have it fixed now. But now I have more work to do!

What a cool idea on the folders. I just found my first George V Canadian cent, a 1920. From what I read, I understand that was the year they stopped making larger, nearly quarter-sized cents.

Incidentally, when googling "whitman folders wiki" you guys show up in the first ten on a bullionstacker post of a similar nature.

Jut won a 1890 Newfoundland 1 cent on Ebay--http://www.ebay.com/itm/261028264471?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

It has been some time for a hole filler!

We got this foe a$1 today. And updated the photos of the folder.
