<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 517885, member: 4552&quot;]Going to about 2 to 4 coin shows a month for many years this is my personal opinion. </p><p>1. Those two row boxes of 2x2&#039;s are OK except that as the box starts to get empty, the 2x2&#039;s fall down. Then they get out of order. The worst part for the dealers part is how many coins vanish that way. No empty places where you can say something is missing. Then too once a person starts going through a box, it is pretty well unavailable for a while. Coins can get scratched by dragging a stapled 2x2 our constantly. </p><p>2. Those 3 ringed binders with those plastic pages for 20- 2x2&#039;s. Work great for allowing different people to look through them if you have enough of them. Easy to see an empty spot and also, not easy to pull out and pocket one as happens. Coins are saparate and do not have the problem of a stapled 2x2 scratching a coin. Difficult to keep coins in order. Once a date is removed, usually only a similar date one can be put there. </p><p>3. Those glass covered cases are the best for seeing coins, noticing a missing one, ease of taking them out and/or replacing coins. Many have slotted pieces for the smaller 1-1/2&quot;x1-1/2&quot; size flips now used by more and more dealers. If used in those 2 row boxes those get lost. If put into those plastic sheets, wasted spaces. </p><p>Summation for me is I usually will not dig through the 2 row boxes. Occationally I will look through the 3 ringed binders. My preference is always a well layed out, glass covered case. </p><p>I really hate when the coins are all out of order by type, date, etc. Those I pass on all the time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
