Vintage Dansco 7070 album - what might it be worth?

I've acquired a vintage Dansco 7070 album from a local coin shop and I am trying to figure out what it might be worth among all of the different incarnations of the Dansco 7070 over the years.

This album doesn't appear to have ever been used to store coins, but it wasn't stored very well, as there is a half-dollar sized, faded whitish colored mark on the back cover (as if someone had set something on top of the album and left it there for years) and a minor scuff or two, and a ding on the top of the rear cover. I used Armor All on the cover and it brought it back nicely. I'm sitting on the fence as to whether to sell it or start filling it, and I promised myself no new projects TM. Yeah, right!

Anyhow, this album is pre-Bicentennial era and the most modern coin slot in it is for the Eisenhower dollar with the slot dated 1971. Here's are the holes featured:

Half Cents - Draped Bust, Turban Head & Liberty Head (Coronet);

Large Cents - Draped Bust, Turban Head, Liberty Head (Classic) & Liberty Head (Coronet);

Small Cents - Flying Eagle, Indian (1859), Indian (1860-1864), Indian (1864-1909), Lincoln VDB, Lincoln (1909-1959), Lincoln "Zinc" (1943), & Lincoln Memorial;

Two Cents, Three Cents (Silver & Nickel);

Half Dimes - Liberty Cap (1829-1837), Liberty Seated (1838-1859), Liberty Seated Arrows (1853-1855) & Liberty Seated (1860-1873);

Dimes - Liberty Cap (1814-1837?), Liberty Seated (1838-60), Liberty Seated Arrows (1853-1855), Liberty Seated Legend (1860-1891), Liberty Head, Mercury, Roosevelt, Roosevelt Clad;

Twenty Cents
