I plan to put mine in those nice little see-through boxes, like the ones Oxus Numismatics uses, I just have to figure out where to buy them first.
I have mine (non-slabbed 1000+ AV coins) in 5 Lighthouse albums. 1/ Ancients-1453 Europe/ fall of Constantinople too Ottomans 2/ Medieval/ Renaissance/ Baroque Europe 3/ Eastern cultures/ 670BC-present 4/ Old World 1750-present 5/ New World 1492-present 450 slabbed are in NGC/ PGGS boxes
I don't have slabbed coins and all my ancients were cleaned by me. I store them in 2X2's in album pages that hold 20. Each coin is number and there is a corresponding datasheet for each. That datasheet contains the specific information and a photo of a coin published with that data, for comparison, and a photo of my coin. I have permission to use the images. I have about 200 coins with the datasheets.
That's pretty neat! Looks like a good thread to ask this question; Sometimes with Dansco-type albums, a coin is so worn on the edges that it will not stay put. I was looking at my Type Set album (Dansco) and noticed one of my coins was missing. At first I thought "maybe I still need it"; then I noticed a small piece of it up against another coin. Anyone have any ideas? It is frustrating - so much that I've consider abandoning the album completely. This thread gives me some ideas Thanks!
@panzerman I used your method for ancients back in the day when I collected them. But these days I only keep around modern stuff, and those I just drop into tubes by type. Case in point...
