[QUOTE="Pishpash, post: 2167737, member: 71514"]I agree with Bing. I used to keep my label and coin in a coin safe double 2x2 flip. These went into pockets meant for trading cards and were kept in ring binders. A few times a coin flip slipped out of the pocket and when I temporally "lost" one of my favourites, I decided to change my system. My method might look long winded, I look upon it as fun. It doesn't matter what system you use, provided it works for you. Remember that stuff you save on your computer can disappear in an instant, so you need to make sure that you back it up, save it to the cloud, stick, whatever. If you are going to change to a system of trays, look at the sites and see what they have on offer. Ask yourself what you might need in the future. Download the brochures. It is a long term investment, I found that I couldn't mix and match between lighthouse and lindner, so I had to make a choice. I got the aluminium box to store the trays because I take them on holiday with me (no safe). If you don't need the carry case, the trays stack just fine. Before you make your investment, consider whether the coins are going to be "happy" in their trays. Is where you live extra high humidity? Take your time, they are your coins and it is your money![/QUOTE]
