[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1679264, member: 22585"]I have always been an advocate of albums, until recently. As an example, I had put a proof cameo 1940 nickel in my Dansco a couple of years ago. When I pushed the slide back in, a very small piece of debris landed on the field. I didn't know this at the time. I don't know if it was actual debris for the album, or a foreign object. I suspect it was a piece from the album itself. Either way, it did some damage. Whenever adding a coin or swapping a current one in the album, that slide has to move. It just started to worry me in regards to more valuable or special coins. Also, since I enjoy coin imaging, it's much easier to shoot them in air tites instead of pushing them in and out of albums. I understand a piece of debris can also do this in an airtite, but I only have to put the coin in once. I feel I greatly lower the risk of contamination.[/QUOTE]
