I also use dansco pages and binders in combination with airtites (the ring type) to store/present some coins. I use Scotch double-sided tape to...
Just how thin is the metal on that cent's clamshell lamination? It looks to be as durable as crinkled tinfoil. It's so ugly, it's beautiful...
Thanks, gx. Yes, I like the Kaisho-lettered 5 Yen coins, too. That 1952 I have there (it is in UNC, although it's toned slightly dark) was a...
Thanks. Now I know how to say that nicely.
