[QUOTE="RaceBannon, post: 1853080, member: 25357"]I also wrestled with how to best store my ancient coins. Having collected modern US coins for so long, I'm an album guy. Favored DANSCOs. So I decided I needed something suitably appealing for my ancient Roman Coins. I settled on a decent looking album and filled it with plastic pages that hold the 2x2 flips Each page holds 12 coins. This allows me to list the attribution info behind each coin. And each page doesn't get too crowded. I actually like this way of displaying them, because in addition to the coin itself, I fill the album with historical background on the rulers portrayed each coin, which adds some depth to the coins themselves. Here are a few shots of how I've organized it. Wait... That last one's my 3 yo daughter playing in the snow this week! Which brings me to my next point the album is easy to conceal from small kids.[/QUOTE]
