<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 4502182, member: 110350&quot;]I use paper labels underneath the coins in my trays.&nbsp; To the extent coins come with their own pre-existing square or round tags/labels from the seller inside the coin flips, I simply scan the labels onto my computer in pdf format, print them out at a reduced size (usually 50-60% of the original) to fit in the coins&#039; tray compartments, and then cut them out and put them in the tray under the coins.&nbsp; If coins don&#039;t come with their own labels, I make them myself by typing them on my computer in either a square or round format (I find the former easier to get right, even using a template!), and then go through the same process of printing them out at an appropriately reduced size. I don&#039;t use handwritten labels, simply because my handwriting is awful and they always turn out looking very messy.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lately, to prevent possible damage to my coins from the paper and ink on which they rest in the trays, I&#039;ve been experimenting with putting the labels inside small plastic pockets which I place under the coins so that the paper and ink never directly touch the coins.&nbsp; By taking a single 2&quot; x 2&quot; double safety flip and folding and cutting it a few times, I can make 8 such pockets, each of which is pretty much the right size for holding my coin labels and fitting in the tray compartments.&nbsp; Here&#039;s what they look like so far, under a row of Greek coins and my few rows of Republican coins.&nbsp; (They&#039;re a bit messy-looking right now, because I haven&#039;t yet trimmed the plastic pockets to the exact size of each label.)&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1116532[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1116533[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
