Is there any difference besides size?

Is there a difference between 1.5x1.5 and 2x2 mylars except for size and convenience for smaller coins, such as in their protection?

Do you mean the cardboard with the mylar window or Saflips? I didn't know that there were 1.5x1.5. I know there are 2x2 & 2.5x2.5 in the SaFlips.

There is llittle difference in the amount of protection offered by both types.

There are. One dealer, a regular at the bi-monthly and annual shows here, uses cardboard 1.5x1.5s for all his coins, proofs and uncirculated. I didn't think they made a 1.5x1.5 that a quarter or half could fit in, but they do.

I don't like them myself because they slip out of the 20 coin pages real easy. I always switch the coins to a 2x2, that doesn't slip out so easy.

 

Yah, the cardboard flips.

 

If they make a binder page with 1.5x1.5 slots that would be great for penny's since you could fit more on a page.

 

I like the uniform size for all coins to be able to fit in 2X2s.

 

Thanks for the tips. Also, what do you guys keep your spare circulated Morgan's in?

 

I only have 1 circulated Morgan, a 1900, and it's in a 2x2.
