Just curious on how some of you folks store your coins. What do you use? I don't mean whether you use 2x2s etc., but more-so: what do you keep them in? Personally I use a little nail/screw/bolt organizer I picked up at Menards, it's made by a company called Plano I believe. Mine is very similar to this:   08-23-2006, 08:04 PM   #2 (permalink) BuffaloHunter 2 short of a full herd     Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: Land of 10,000 Lakes Posts: 227 My Mood: Most of my coins are in safety deposit box at the bank. But for the not so spendy coins and what nots I have this chest in the den.

Need some dessicant though. Need to get that going to keep the moisture down, it is so humid here.   08-23-2006, 09:03 PM   #5 (permalink) Midas Coin Hoarder     Join Date: Apr 2005 Posts: 796 High, room temperature, and dry... __________________ “It's what you learn after you know it all that counts.” - John Wooden   08-23-2006, 09:46 PM   #6 (permalink) Guardian Senior Member   Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: West coast Posts: 101 The ones that I have are in one of those cardboard covered folders. The coins fit right into the holes and don't fall out very easy. Seems to work real good.   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
