These currency holders are used by some of the largest museums and paper money dealers to house their extensive and priceless currency holdings. </span></p><p><br /></p><p>Regular flips can be vinyl (PVC).&nbsp; The old kind were heavily plasticized and had a &quot;shower curtain smell&quot;, but then they reduced the plasticizers to a very low level ( cracks easier),~Walmart has odorless shower curtains now, but still PVC~ but is less chance to transfer to a coin and initiate damage, Many no-name flips are made of this to sell cheaply. Some large dealers use them for shipping as softer and less chance of abrasion of scratching through shipping. Most stick a label identifying it so the coin can be transferred by the new owner.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
