I colect already some coin and it's time to storage nad sorted How is best way to storage old coin? capsules for coin slip case for coin Or some box for coin or something else? And do you buy something to coating coin? what is it?
It all depends on the coins and how you want to store/display them. 99% of my coins are in 2x2 mylar flips and I am working on organizing them into plastic pages. What kind of coins are you trying to store?
I've been using BCW slabs for my coins. Because that's how I want it to look, those cardboard envelopes that you have to staple shut just seem too junky and cheap to me. (Not my photo.)
just make sure there isn't any pvc in your coin flips if you go that route. most people store ancients in 2x2 flips.
From their website: Coin Slabs and Snaps Made from Polystyrene Chemically inert (contains no PVC) High clarity 2-Piece, friction fit design Fits all sizes of BCW foam inserts Retail packaging Note: Polystyrene is considered an archival safe material.
ANYONE KNOW SOMETHING ON THIS SITE TO ADVICE!!!!!!!!!!! Nobady say nothing SMART so I buy quadrium intercept for coin but coin dosn't fit inside because ancient coin its to fat? I CANT CLOSE THIS
+2 As you've probably noticed, ancients aren't as "neat" or perfect around the edges as moderns are so the 2x2 flip will probably be your best bet. I get mine from Kointainer. I bought them from Vcoins.com. When you buy the 100 bundle they come with archival quality paper inserts and a red box to put them in. Think with shipping to US it was about $24.00.
PVC flips also suck. Because you can't write something about the coin? who is on coin what year, number of coin, because this is ancient coin! if you write on paper you wont see both side of coin?
Bojan, your response seem rather rude, but I will reply once more. As Jwt said, we place paper inserts in with the coin with all pertinent data.
. First, they're talking about NON-PVC. Second, if you would kindly take a look at a photo of one of these flips you'll notice it has two inserts. Its simple, really. One insert for the coin, the other for a slip of paper for all of the coin's information. Oh, and quit the attitude please. Thank you.
I Was angry because when I ask one week ago nobody say nothing about ..... now when I buy it's to late. (I dont want to say how hard I collect money to buy a wrong stuff) and if you gogle PVC flips http://coins.about.com/od/caringforcoins/f/pvc_damage_faq.htm PVC damage on coins is the result of improperly storing coins
there is no space for write all this: Marcus Aurelius as Caesar AE As. 153-4 AD. OBV: AVRELIVS CAESAR AVG PII FIL, draped bust right REV: TR POT VIII COS II S-C, Salus standing left feeding snake in arms & leaning on column. REF: RIC 1319[pius], Cohen 670. IF I'M WRONG PLEASE SHOW ME PICTURE
here are the 2x2 flips i use, they come with an insert. you can write you info on the paper in one side, the coin goes in the other.
