Thoughts, comments and ideas welcome. I wanted to keep all of my Ikes in one album and didn't want to crack out a set of PR69 DCAM's to put in album holes. The only pages I could find made for slabs are bigger than all of my Dansco albums. So... I bought a blank 1¼" wide binder with room for Ike pages and 2 pages of slabs. The pages I used for the slabs are actually for Baseball Cards and I kept slabs from sliding out by sealing the pockets with a foodsaver machine. Now I'm having second thoughts because I don't know if PVC in the pages may affect the coins in the slabs or album pages.
Very cool setup. PVC is really only a danger if it comes into contact with the surface of the coin. That's why PVC flips are bad. This type of storage should be safe for the coins' surfaces.
A difficult problem to overcome. Trying to store graded holders in a Dansco (or other "regular" holed coin albums) is difficult. Sometimes you make the best attempt and just be happy with it. I know that there are hard-plastic "pages" that hold slabs: Lighthouse's ENCAP pages. I think these are too big to fit a Dansco album, but could possibly fit a CAPS airtite album. I think the Lighthouse pages are the same size, and fit the "3-ring binder" set up of a CAPS album. Same material, too. Lighthouse ENCAP page: CAPS album page
