<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 2437835, member: 17665"]I've never had an issue with slide marks either but here again, it's all about being careful. Don't push the coins in too far and double check their position before replacing the slides. It's not much different than using or not using soft cotton gloves with your coins. Never be in a rush with any valuable coins and you will be safe. Another post mentioned the Whitman Large Cent album with the slots being too hard to get the coins into. I had this problem because of the variations on the diameters of the coin. After the first coin proved to be a problem, I used an pen knife to carefully remove some of the inside of the slot until the coin went in w/o a problem. Time consuming but worth the effort of being careful. But I still would not take a chance with albums on expensive early proofs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
