<p>[QUOTE="Boss, post: 570752, member: 15110"]I go to extreme lengths as I live in a humid area. I put all raw coins of any value in Intercept 2x2' or air-tites in Intercept box's. Those are placed in a Reynold's brand or Ziplock brand bag that allows all the air to be sucked out with a machine. Can buy this at most any supermarket or Target or what have you. I surround with fresh pennies to take the oxidizing his instead of my nice coins. Before I suck the air out I place a rechargeable dessicant tin (reheat in an over to remove humidity). This whole thing goes into another ziplock (same kind with air sucked out). Lower value coins go in 2x2 mylar/carboard flips. Best to use canned air or wipe with a soft cloth the flips as paper dust will tone your coins in time, and can get sort of embedded in the coin. Graded coins get placed in Intercept box's and the same procedure repeated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
