Ok, so as I have been getting better at the hobby and actually took to acquire some higher-grade un-slabbed coins, I find myself with a large number of the round airtite and such containers. And no way to display them.

I tried the two by two pages for slips and the rounds just don't stay in, look hideous in them, etc.

So my question is, how to store and display them.

And yes, I know most people put them in zip lock bags and put them away in safes and bank vaults. That's not what I'm looking to do nor have means of doing.

Plus, I'd like to display them in binders/albums as with most of my coins so I can look at them at my pleasure!

So is there some kind of special way of doing this that I am just ignorant of? Some sort of storage container JUST for round plastic capsules? A page for a binder perhaps?

Help, my fellow numismatists!

I don't have any of these, but they may be what you're looking for:

Might be able to pick them up cheaper used on eBay as they are sort of expensive when shipping is factored in.

I did some looking online and ran across this picture.

As I use a 3 ring binder and would like to use air-tites for my coins instead of 2x2 flips this looked very interesting.

If anyone has any information about the item linked above I would be interested.

Hi Sasha,
After trying alot of storage methods, I have found the best to be:
putting my coins in air-tite direct fit capsule,
putting the capsule in Lighthouse self-sealing 2x2,
putting the 2x2 in a archival 20coin page,
putting the pages in Lighthouse album & slip cover set.
I also put in, Littleton Corrision Protection Pages at the front and back of the album.
I'm sure there are other good methods, but I've tried alot and so far this is the best.
