[QUOTE="TIF, post: 3936542, member: 56859"]If I switch to printed paper envelopes, I do not plan on storing the old tags with the coin. Instead, I'll make two printed envelopes-- one for the coin, and one for the ephemera. The latter will be stored in a separate file. I have some concerns about the glue but it is not acidic: pH "above 7", but how [I]much[/I] above? The glue sticks to the carrier page, not the envelopes, although there could be traces of adhesive on the envelopes. I'm more concerned about the ink at the moment and haven't yet found any information about its pH. Also, I don't know if the ink for the printer I'm using is dye-based or pigment-based.
