[QUOTE="Mikjo0, post: 126843, member: 3565"]I use either 3 or 4 inch Mead 5-star zippered binders which will comfortably hold 10-11 pages or about 120 coins and the 4" ones will hold 15-16 pages. You've answered your own question about how the pages hold up.I move the coins from pocket to pocket almost every time I buy a new coin and they hold up well but if they rip on the sides of the pockets, just replace them. There is another little trick that I've found useful.The holders tend to not want to sit all the way down into the pockets because of their thickness.Take the page and put in 12 holders,with or without coins in them.Take the page and use a hair dryer to heat up the front while holding just the very top between your fingers.Gravity will drop the holders to the bottom of the pockets when they're soft.I like to make a crease with my thumbs and fingers along the top of the holders to keep them in place even better.Then they will reharden and form a perfect fit. Roy..I really like your system!![/QUOTE]
