Message:: [QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 2353796, member: 51347"]I tried a few methods and have found a great one that works well for me.  I have had problems with Saflips breaking, or the folded saflip being awkward to handle / store in boxes. I discovered Littleton's ancients albums that hold my 2x2 Saflips in an open position. So, the top of my open flip holds my 2x2 card and provenances. Bottom side holds the coin. The albums hold 6 flips to a page (each in an open 2x4 format). what is great is that i can see the coin and card with obverse info, turn the page and see the coin and card with reverse info. The albums have a cardboard cover, and I have dessicant pages in front and back.  I have several albums by collecting focus. The album stores like a book, but are completely enclosed in the album cover.  The albums balance compact storage space and viewability for me. Using Saflips are better for the long term care of the coin, as well as being rigid enough that you can easily slide them into the page pouches. Storage is in safes or bank, dependent on accessability needs. My wife is developing an Access database with me, so that I can picture, categorize, pull up data, sort, develop location numbers, etc. (LOL, [USER=71514]@Pishpash[/USER] , she is working on it as I post!). I want to add historical pics, articles, etc. into the database as I collect from an historical perspective.[/QUOTE]
