Reviews

A nice folder, but consider also Whitman's Harris folder that appears to have some relative advantages.
Review date: 2010-01-23 Rating: 8 out of 10

This review contrasts the standard blue Whitman folder, and Whitman's H. E. Harris folder. Since both folders cover similar collections and both are published by Whitman Books, one question naturally arises, are there any significant reasons to favor one folder over the other? I believe the answer is yes, and that for me the differences favor the Harris folders. However, I can understand how others may favor Whitmans's standard blue style folders, and I do have to concede that I have used the standard Whitman folders for so long, that they just seem 'right' when seen or held.

The standard Whitman folders have exteriors made of paper and the back of these exterior paper covers also provide the back for the coins inserted in the interior. On the-other-hand the front covers of Whitman's Harris & Co, folder as well as the inside back covering for the coin slots of their "Lincoln Cents Starting 1975" folder is heavily plasticized. This folder has three pages, each page providing 30 coin slots. There is a total of eighty-two designated (identified) slots, in my folder purchased in 2010, that have printed slot descriptions from "Memorial Reverse" and 1975 through 2009-D with slots for all eight versions of the 2009 cent. Eight additional slots are also provided but not designated.

Perhaps because of its plasticized covers the Harris folders are slightly thicker. In one case, with a standard Whitman blue folder I inadvertently placed too much pressure in removing a coin from the folder and the paper punctured. This would appear much more unlikely in the case of the plasticized exterior of a Harris folder. Additionally, the plasticized finish means that the exterior of these folders are much easier to keep clean. The Harris folders also have a light-toned interior background compared to the medium-blue background of the Whitman books. This makes the printed coin information easier to read in a Harris folder.

Note that the newer versions of the standard blue-style Whitman folders and Whitman's Harris folder are the same height so that there's no height conflict issues when placed side by side on a bookshelf. However, the new Whitman folders are about 5mm taller than my earlier Whitman "Penny" and "Cent" collection folders purchased some years back. The newer Whitman folder also has spine labeling missing on my earlier Whitman folders. The spine labeling now makes it easier to find the collection sought more quickly when different folders are stacked side-by-side.

Conclusion. The plasticized finish of the Harris folders makes them sturdier, and easier to clean. Their lighter background makes the printing easier to read. Their slightly thicker size and larger spine printing makes them easier to distinguish on a shelf.

Great Penny Folder
Review date: 2009-12-29 Rating: 10 out of 10

Picked this up and several other coin folders from Whitman and I am very happy with them. This penny 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!

Stay away from the 1959-1998 folder, I have gotten 2 and the holes are extremely tight.

Penny Collecting
Review date: 2008-06-16 Rating: 10 out of 10

As a child, my Grandfather collected pennies for each of his Grandchildren. As an adult, I am still collecting. The Whitman folders were good enough then, and they are certainly good enough now. Easy to insert coins, yet tight enough to hold them for many years.

A GOOD START FOR COIN COLLECTING

I was given this book by my dad when I was little...it got me interested in coin collecting and is inexpensive! I would recommend it as a gift for kids or adults...it makes a fun hobby!
