<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 472082, member: 4552&quot;]I&#039;ve got a little advise for you. I know those folders are great for kids but if you really want to incurage her into this hobby, you should try albums, not folders. Here are some reasons:</p><p>1. If a kid can only see one side of a coin, it may loose some interest in some important details.</p><p>2. If a kid can only see one side of a coin they may not realize some important items shown there.</p><p>3. They may miss a possible reverse side error.</p><p>4. They may miss a possible rotated reverse.</p><p>5. Now here is the really important item. If you use those folders, note the shinny back of the slots for the coins. This is the glue from the manufacturing process. The back sheets are completely coated and the slotted cardboard is placed on that. That glue over time could and usually does effect the coins. Many kids like this since if a coin starts to fall out, they just spit on the coin and the glue now holds the coins.</p><p>5. One more important item. Those folders are usually made to hold the coins tight so the slots for them are tapered. This means a forced push by a thumb or even a small hammer is needed sometimes to put the coins in place. </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; The summation is to purchase an album from the start.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
