<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 463591, member: 4552"]Lets start at the beginning. If you go to any coin show you would notice that possibly 90% of the dealers use 1-1/2"x1-1/2" size cardboard flips. If you place those in a plastic page made to hold 20 flips, there will be about 1/2" left where you could paste a sticky type with the info on for each coin. This leaves both sides visable. Also, those smaller ones are much cheaper to purchase. Of course those are only good for smaller denominations, not halves or larger dollars. </p><p>If you use the cardboard 2x2's there is always room to place all the info you want on the 2x2's.</p><p>If you use the clear plastic flips, just make yourself a template of paper with a hole in it the size of the coins you want to use. Place the paper template next to the plastic flip, not inside it, and write what ever you want on that. You will still be able to see both sides of the coins. </p><p>Now if your really good at small writtings you could just print all the info write on the coins with a tool engraving machine.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Then everything of interest will be right there and both sides visable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
