<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBK, post: 18696, member: 1101&quot;]I am surprised that the old 2x2s are not getting more respect.&nbsp; Personally, I swear by them.&nbsp; There are better holders, to be sure, but at 3 cents a whack, they are good protection.&nbsp; The plastic in them is (and always has been, if I remember correctly), Mylar, which is a top inert material.&nbsp; The cardboard may or may not be acid free, but as long as you make sure to keep any cardboard dust away from the inside of the holder, then that should not matter.&nbsp; Never had that oozing staple issue before, but I think maybe stainless staples (if they make such a thing?) could solve that.</p><p>The downside is that the plastic is thin and that staples can pierce the other 2x2s, so be sure to use pliers to squish them down flat. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have lots of coins that I put in 2x2s that otherwise would just be thrown in a bunch into an envelope, because they are not worth putting into higher priced holders.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
