I'm somewhat new to collecting coins. I've got some BU 50's and 60's dimes and quarters and AU older coins (e.g. 2 cents, liberty nickels, indian head pennies). Value is from $5 to $100 a piece. How should I store these? I've been using the 2x2 cardboard flips and storing them in the folders. Is that good enough? I worry about damaging some of the coins when I take them out of the folder to look at. I've also used the ring air tight circular holders [2] for my silver eagles and morgan dollars. I've heard that they are not really air tight though and don't have a good way to organize/display these. I've heard the best is the intercept shield holders [1]. Should I be storing all of my coins in the intercept shield 2x2 holders? Just the more valuable ones? What do you use to store your coins in? I just wanted to get others thoughts and ideas on storing coins. Thanks! [1] http://www.interceptshield.com/ [2] http://www.air-tites.com/
Safely! j/k....I'd love to know how an Intercept Shield album works out. Not crazy about air-tites....the 'slabs' look a bit cheesy to me....like those 3rd world slabbers on ebay.
