<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sylvester, post: 57236, member: 708&quot;]Well generally i leave all mine in the cabinet. But when i buy coins at coin fairs most dealers usually supply the coin in the white paper envelopes. And we&#039;re not just talking ancient/medieval coin dealers here, i&#039;ve bought 18th century and even 20th century coins in the white envelopes (infact i&#039;d say 90% odf the dealers in these parts use them short term). I generally remove them once i get the home simply because i have no idea whether it&#039;s a good quality envelope (acid free etc.) or one of the cheap sulphur containing ones (do avoid those). Although i have stored coins in them short term usually before selling them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I usually recommend airtites, but with ancients that is problematic because particularly thinking of Greek coins like tetradrachms the relief is often very high and getting airtites thick enough is an issue. Dunno even know if it&#039;s possible.</p><p><br /></p><p>What i do see alot of at coin fairs and in coin shops are the old stackable coin trays. Usually of grey plastic with clear plastic lid, with red velvet lining in each compartments. I know alot of dealers that use them and i know someone that sells them. This i think would be the best place to start.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.predecimal.com/collectors/shop/largertrays.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.predecimal.com/collectors/shop/largertrays.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.predecimal.com/collectors/shop/largertrays.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The dealer is based in Germany but he&#039;ll sell pretty much anywhere, he can accept US $ as payment too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
