<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PyrotekNX, post: 144128, member: 3918&quot;]I chose the both option because 2x2s and albums both have their uses.&nbsp; 2x2s are by far, the most flexible.&nbsp; They can be stored in a box or in a ring binder with pocket pages.&nbsp; Also if you plan on selling or trading coins in 2x2s, you don&#039;t have to do anymore prep work on them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Albums are great because it keeps coins organized better than 2x2s do.&nbsp; They are more convienient than pocket pages because more coins can fit on a page.&nbsp; If you are putting together a type set, albums are the best way to go.&nbsp; Albums also make it easier to but a type set together since the ports are labeled, which makes it much easier to see which ones are missing from your collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>I use 2x2s for misc coins which do not fit in my albums.&nbsp; When I have enough of a set in 2x2s, I will consider upgrading them to an album.&nbsp; The downside of albums are that they aren&#039;t very flexible storage wise.&nbsp; They can also end up being quite expensive.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are some coins which I don&#039;t keep in albums or 2x2s just because there are too many of them.&nbsp; I have the majority of my wheat cents in paper rolls and I am keeping the better grade ones in plastic tubes.&nbsp; I have plastic sandwich baggies full of coins which are unsorted or really not worth my time doing anything else with.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
