Today at the coin shop I bought this album with coins for $2.50 US and the 1929 look nice any thoughts on grade. And what it is worth?

You more than got your money's worth for $2.50.... there are others very nice to keep. The '29 trends for about $5-6 in F-15 to VF-20 where it looks like yours is. Up here, you should be able to pick them up for $2-3 at most shows. It's a good album to try to fill .. Canada is trying to pull all the pure nickel coins back to remelt, since they are worth more in scrap than the denomination.

You definately didn't overpay for it, but just be careful, it maybe his way of getting you hooked on collecting, and then you'll be back to spend mucho more money :) I'll admit, I'm hooked now....
