I could readily see someone making the bags a little more "coinish", maybe with outlines of state quarters or bust dollars and selling them on coin supply sites for good prices. If you put coins in the quart size and sealed with dessicant, and then put 2 or 3 of those in a gallon bag with a color change dessicant and vacuum that, you have a 2 stage protection system.
