<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JrCoin, post: 577727, member: 18390&quot;]On the flip side, would you recommend certain albums/folders for particularly attractive &quot;corrosion&quot;?&nbsp; I love a nice patina...for my less prized coins I use H.E. Harris and Whitman folders.&nbsp; I think the Whitmans seem to tone coins faster.&nbsp; It&#039;s hard to judge sometimes.&nbsp; I can understand the desire to keep a coin jem white, particularly a frosty american eagle proof dollar.&nbsp; In that particular set it seems that toned coins are more rare, the ones I&#039;ve seen are probably lower grade MS that have been artificially &quot;doctored.&quot;&nbsp; While interesting to look at, I don&#039;t find the neon glow look particularly attractive.&nbsp; I like airtite coin holders, they are alot cheaper than tpg encapsulation and offer a fair amount of protection.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.coinsupplystore.com/site/1648271/page/785916#Air" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinsupplystore.com/site/1648271/page/785916#Air" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinsupplystore.com/site/1648271/page/785916#Air</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I wish airtite had &quot;albums&quot; for complete series collections but I might eventually add their storage boxes to my collection.&nbsp; I have serious space limitations to my collection as it is all stored in a fire safe.&nbsp; There is something very appealing about attractive presentation, I think an airtite holder on a velvet card just sets the coin off right for viewing.&nbsp; NGC holders look okay I guess but I&#039;d say the new ones are less so, and other tpg slabs look like you just bought your coin off the rack at Walmart, imo.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Maybe someday I&#039;ll build a shallow drawer cabinet like collectors used to employ.&nbsp; Tool boxes do a fair job with the shallow drawer too.&nbsp; I don&#039;t have any experience with the Dansco so I&#039;m interested what Dansco owners feel are the pros/cons to this method of storage.&nbsp; There is great satisfaction (so I hear)<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> from a complete album...probably why they sell those crummy replica coins on ebay for the rest of us.&nbsp; I think I&#039;d rather look at an empty hole.&nbsp; Uh, just my 2 cents worth, sorry if I rambled...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
