<p>[QUOTE="Mr. Coin Lover, post: 667064, member: 16060"]I'm sure all of you that posted about the woods being a bad idea are absolutely correct. But, I don't know if it helps or not the cases are coated in clear lacquer. I'm just not sure that a coin in an airtite or slab would deteriorate fast enough that it needs to a concern of mine. I guess my sons can deal with it down the road. I mean how much air can be leaking into an airtite anyway if the air pressure is the same on the inside as the outside.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is just me, but I don't like to buy random coins. I don't buy to resell, but to collect. After saying that all the coins I collect have a start, end, and some type of theme. I look at all my coins at least twice a month or so because I like to do that. I think that a beautiful display of coins adds to the beauty of the coins themselves.</p><p><br /></p><p>I'll give you an example thatreally blows my mind everytime I look at the set. It is a complete set of Westward Journey and Return to Monticello Nickels from all three mints.</p><p>The set in the display case by appearance looks like it shoud be worth about ten times its actual value, very beautiful in my opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have been around Doug a lot longer than Krispy. I knew Doug would point this out and that is great to forewarn anyone. But, there may be others that feel the same way I do.</p><p>Bad idea, I won't disagree with you there are better ways to preserve a coin. Let me just say though they sure look beautiful in their cases, I mean really beautiful.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

This is just me, but I don't like to buy random coins. I don't buy to resell, but to collect. After saying that all the coins I collect have a start, end, and some type of theme.

I'll give you an example thatreally blows my mind everytime I look at the set. It is a complete set of Westward Journey and Return to Monticello Nickels from all three mints. The set in the display case by appearance looks like it shoud be worth about ten times its actual value, very beautiful in my opinion. I have been around Doug a lot longer than Krispy.

Bad idea, I won't disagree with you there are better ways to preserve a coin. Let me just say though they sure look beautiful in their cases, I mean really beautiful.[/QUOTE]
