[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3074145, member: 112"]I'll say this about Intercept Shield technology - it works, and I highly recommend it ! That said, it comes in a few different forms. There are IS slabs, IS slab holders, and IS slab boxes - and they all work. But that is assuming that you also follow the rest of proper storage procedure. What I am trying to say is this - if you use IS products, but you do everything else wrong - then the IS products are not going to work as well as they should, or nearly as long as they should. Proper coin storage encompasses several different things, and each one of them is equally important and required ! You can't just do 1 and forget all about the others, nor can you do just 2 and forget about the others. You have to utilize ALL of them if you want to protect your coins as best you can. So what are all the steps ? I've posted them here more times than I can count, but I guess I'll do it one more time. 1 - individual hard plastic coin holder - for each coin 2 - an [U]inert[/U] storage container that can be closed and or sealed. A safe or Tupperware container for example. 3 - rechargeable silica gel packs inside the storage container. 4 - the storage container needs to be kept in a cool, dark place where the temperature varies as little as possible, preferably a place with no exterior walls. 5 - ALL non inert materials must be removed from proximity to your coins. That means all paper, all vinyl, all cardboard, anything and everything that is not inert must be removed from proximity to your coins. And yes that includes original packaging materials because none of them are inert.[/QUOTE]
