<p>[QUOTE="Prime Mover, post: 1824148, member: 38783"]I just started going down the path of government bullion "coins", and also some "art" rounds - such as the old man round. I'm also partial to the Lunar II series dragons. The suggestions previously about clarifying what you want to collect is good, since the amount of coins etc. will quickly start to grow on you, and yes every year you'll need to buy them all so you're adding 20, 30, 50 coins per year easily. what series you like is for you to decide.</p><p><br /></p><p>However I will offer my suggestion for you for storage would be the Lighthouse Quadrum system.

And, not sure if you're a fan of toned coins, but either way if or if not, using a plastic capsule such as an air-tite or a TPG slab will preserve the state of the coins better by not letting them tone further as quickly. Can't do that with any open-air album (unless of course that's your intention, and personally I love toned coins so no issue there).</p><p><br /></p><p>I personally use the system, and find it's very flexible and fits my needs well since I can use air-tites, their own quadrum holders, or put in any of the major TPG slabs all within the same album binder.
