[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2887925, member: 69760"]I prefer Quadrums, but if you have really expensive coins maybe get them slabbed. Although Air-Tites probably offer one of the best reusable seals, the one thing I dislike about Air-Tites is that they're round and rotate in my Lead Dog 12-pocket pages. You could put some sort of square cardboard frame around it, but it's more work when Quadrums will achieve the same while offering a good amount of protection. You'll have a second layer of protection with the pages, too.
