<p>[QUOTE=&quot;midtncoin, post: 2834881, member: 89569&quot;]Hi all, </p><p><br /></p><p>First time post but long-time reader.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been collecting coins for over 30 years but back in the early 2000&#039;s, I decided to take a break.&nbsp; After about 15 years of not paying attention to the numismatic world, I decided to jump back in this year.&nbsp; One thing that I had always done in the past was to purchase the yearly mint sets.&nbsp; Prior to my temporary retirement, the mint sets were shipped in two individual mylar(?) envelopes with a post-card for each.&nbsp; I would purchase the vinyl sheets that are designed to hold post cards (3 to a page) and this would easily hold both P, D, and postcards for a single year in a single page.</p><p><br /></p><p>But now that I&#039;ve gotten back into things, I just purchased the 2016 and 2017 mint sets to start backfilling my missing years.&nbsp; And I&#039;ve discovered that the format that they are shipping them in does not lend itself to easy storage.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>So that leads to my question:&nbsp; Do you collect AND display your mint sets and, if so, how do you deal with the new formats?&nbsp; Honestly, at this point, I can&#039;t come up with a easy solution and I&#039;m thinking (just thinking at this point) to simply break everything out, store them in 2x2&#039;s, and put them in my regular 5x5 vinyl sheets.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would love to hear what the rest of you use for storing/holding/displaying mint sets.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
