I'm new here and started collecting the US Mint coins fir starters. If I were to collect coins, and keep them from humidity, what could I do? I'm from Iran (since everyone is saying where they are from ).   01-10-2009, 06:41 PM   #2 (permalink) randygeki Coin Collector     Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Flagstaff, Arizona Posts: 2,040 My Mood: welcome to ct   01-10-2009, 06:43 PM   #3 (permalink) randygeki Coin Collector     Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Flagstaff, Arizona Posts: 2,040 My Mood: I think some people use Silica Gel to reduce humidity, but I dont know much about it.   01-10-2009, 07:07 PM   #4 (permalink) 4largecents Goldpan Man     Join Date: Dec 2008 Location: Alabama Posts: 223 My Mood: Welcome to CT glad to have you aboard __________________ Attitude is a choice...good or bad.   01-10-2009, 09:01 PM   #5 (permalink) quartertapper Coin Hoarder     Join Date: Nov 2008 Location: Wisconsin Posts: 773 My Mood: Welcome to cointalk. I would store your coins in an air tight container with some type of desicant such as silica.   01-10-2009, 09:32 PM   #6 (permalink) DsDude Junior Member   Join Date: Aug 2008 Posts: 16 My Mood: Thank guys!   01-10-2009, 09:55 PM   #7 (permalink) DsDude Junior Member   Join Date: Aug 2008 Posts: 16 My Mood: Sorry for double posting, but where could I get rolls of pennies or rolls of coins? Could I ask for a roll at my bank?   01-10-2009, 11:13 PM   #8 (permalink) Mr. Coin Lover Supporter**     Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Florida Posts: 1,078 My Mood: Yes, your bank should have pennies. As far as the "rolls of coins" you asked about, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by this. But, welcome to Coin Talk and hope you have fun here.   01-11-2009, 05:18 AM   #9 (permalink) kidromeo I'M LEGEND     Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: Republic Of India Posts: 1,751 My Mood: Greetings and Welcome To Coin Talk __________________ Visit My Website   01-12-2009, 02:41 AM   #10 (permalink) Peter T Davis Man behind the curtain!     Join Date: Sep 2002 Location: New England Posts: 3,141 My Mood: Blog Entries: 1 Welcome to CoinTalk! __________________ Your Friendly Host Take a moment to answer an unanswered question!   01-12-2009, 03:34 AM   #11 (permalink) rld14 Custom User Title     Join Date: Nov 2008 Location: Nova Caesarea Posts: 875 My Mood: Not sure if your bank in Iran will have American Coins. Suggest you try some American dealers, but I am not sure if coins are covered under export controls to Iran or not.   01-12-2009, 06:30 AM   #12 (permalink) De Orc P & R COMMISSAR     Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: London.
