However, I find it more economical to either store them in paper envelopes, or 2/2 flips, and then placed in a 2/2 holder storage box. That is also a very compact way to store your collection.

[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2721222, member: 76194"]There are many ways to properly store a coin collection.

Here you can see the process as I was converting from my previous album storage method to this method. You do not have to go down the paper envelope route though, 2x2 plastic flips will work the same in a storage box.

There would be room for much more (around 200 coins) if it wasn't for me storing the original tags that came with each coin in the upper left section of the box. In the space that would be taken by one album, you could fit two of these boxes and store up to 400 coins (far more than the album will ever hold.)
