<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mac266, post: 934114, member: 26371&quot;]Though this may seem elementary to some people, to others it might be new information.&nbsp; I see some people talking about coin &quot;folders,&quot; which implies the paper folders with individual holes cut for each coin.&nbsp; The obverse side is left completely open to the air, and the reverse is held against the paper backing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some of you might not know these types of folders can damage your coins.&nbsp; The contact with the paper is the worst, because chemicals in the paper and its ink will cause coins to corrode over time.&nbsp; Exposure to the air can be bad, too, especially if you live in a smog-polluted city.&nbsp; Chemicals in the air will corrode your coins, and this can also include household cleaners.</p><p><br /></p><p>I *strongly* suggest you upgrade these folders to the notebook style-coin books.&nbsp; The cardboard pages are made of materials that will not harm the coins, as are the clear plastic covers over the obverse and reverse.&nbsp; You can also see both sides just by turning the page; the reverse&#039;s cover is clear plastic, as is the obverse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
