[QUOTE="ycon, post: 2979082, member: 91771"]My current coin storage system was set up when I was a kid with supplies from the local coin shop. I have a regular three ring binder with vinyl (eek) sheets, with all my coins (now) in pvc-free flips from Forvm. I have a couple of questions: first, how much do I need to worry about the vinyl of the sheets when the coins are in pvc free flips? I'd probably like to upgrade to some kind of storage box (in my dreams a mahogany cabinet, but I'm not sure I'm ready to shell out for that yet). I've started looking at various products and they all seem geared either to slaps or to other sorts of encased coins. Is it OK to store your coins in these raw? What do other people do? I've also been wondering about tags in these sorts of cabinets. Do you have to worry about acid in the paper or ink affecting your coin if they're in direct contact? (say if you have the label right underneath the coin?) Finally I'd really appreciate recommendations for specific products that people use and enjoy-- something not huge, not terribly expensive, but made with totally safe materials.[/QUOTE]
