[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 719511, member: 2972"]I've gotta disagree with you here, my friend... You can use a cotton glove and not touch the coin. That said, I think that for relatively cheap coins there's nothing at all wrong with keeping them in albums -- but you have to be comfortable with their shortcomings including toning and possible damage from the slips or when being inserted. It is also hard to argue the aesthetic quality of a nice album. That said, I do agree that for proof coins the shortcomings of albums certainly becomes more prominent. Respectfully...Mike[/QUOTE]
