<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 2634057, member: 74282&quot;]A picture I&#039;ve shared before, but this is how I store things. Coins go in archival paper envelopes with full notes, provenance, etc. and a unique number that identifies each coin. The coins themselves are ordered according to Crawford&#039;s numbering. Old provenance tags, envelopes, etc. are scanned into my digital file and then put into old flips I&#039;ve cut up and stored separately(actually in a separate box now) and organized not by Crawford number but by my collection number so they&#039;re easy to find. Some of these flip halves have things like scans of old catalogs as well for provenance verification.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reason I like this split strategy is that I can keep the coins stored safely away in a safety deposit box and the old tags and whatnot at home and the coin storage itself is relatively compact. Also, they&#039;re not necessarily needed where I live in Colorado, but I like to keep dessicant packs in with my coins and change them every other month or so, just as a bit of added protection against bronze disease.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]580033[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
