MORE ON WARMAN'S CANADIAN SMALL CENTS FOLDER
David Lange submitted these notes on the scarcity of the Warman's Canadian Small Cents Folder. Thanks. -Editor
I was pleased to see an illustration of Warman's folder for Canadian small cents in the French language edition. This item is extremely rare, at least in the USA. I
first spotted it on eBay about five years ago and immediately purchased it to complete my set of Warman's coin folders. The seller wrote back that it was a mistake to show the
French version and that this was not available. I've been searching for it ever since, but the only current listings I can find are this one on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/Pieces-Canadiennes-Cent-1920-2012-canadiennes/dp/1440237980/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1547475431&sr=8-1&keywords=Pieces+Canadiennes+De+1+Cent+1920-2012
and this one on eBay:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/1920-2012-Pieces-de-1-cent-Canada-Complet-1922-1923-1924-1925-1926-Warmans/143060526637?hash=item214f12662d:g:aZYAAOSwg1JcHUH~:rk:1:pf:0
The eBay listing is for a completed folder, but even the empty one on Amazon is priced in three figures! Were there only ten copies printed?
I've checked the usual suspects for coin hobby supplies, and no one even mentions the French edition.
I'm hoping someone can supply me with this very recent coin folder at a realistic price.
Dave adds:
I just noticed that a buyer of the Amazon listing commented on how it was much cheaper than the English edition!
