[QUOTE="fsiegle, post: 109738, member: 4921"]Which albums specifically? I had a Harris album with the sliding mylar windows but took it back because I was afraid of scraping or scratching the coin faces. I then considered the Harris 5 port ("frosted"?) plastic holders but I don't know what to store them in and it seems like the coins could rotate and disturb the orientation. I then thought of Airtite holders and the six-page albums with display cards but that's pretty expensive. I kind of like the Coinedge/Coinsafe option but now I'm seeing people say three ring binders are bad, and I'm wondering about those Coinsafe album pages. If I had proofs I could justify the Airtite route but I don't want to spend a fortune on BUs. I just want to keep them reasonably safe and be able to see obverse and reverse. It finally occurred to me that I don't know how I'll wind up displaying my collection in the end. Maybe I'll want easels or frames or something else, but I'm more into the collecting and viewing of these coins rather than just storing them away for investment purposes. I'll probably just want to look at them and show them off rather than sell them for a profit.[/QUOTE]
