<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 3231335, member: 1765&quot;]Disagree here.&nbsp; While albums indeed are not great archival storage options, I don&#039;t think they&#039;re the worst thing.&nbsp; PVC flips and mint (not necessarily US mint) packaging takes the cake here in my book.&nbsp; I&#039;ve handled coins that were stored in these things that were so covered with green slime that I had to wash my hands with Goop after handling them.&nbsp; Stuff in decent albums fares much better.&nbsp; I have uncirculated Lincolns that have come out of blue Whitman folders that had been there for decades and look far better than they would have had they been in PVC flips for less than 10 years.&nbsp; Yeah, they&#039;re toned, but they&#039;re not ruined.</p><p><br /></p><p>Today I have Danscos with dimes 1916-79, Franklin halves, ASEs 1986-present, and cents.&nbsp; Nothing is terribly high value in these albums, and they&#039;re fun to look at in this presentation format.&nbsp; They&#039;re also easy to show to a new collector without having to worry about handling.&nbsp; I need to pick up a blank Dansco for quarters for my state quarters and ATB quarters, none of which are worth much more than a quarter.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
