<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MIGuy, post: 19987831, member: 116145&quot;]Some years ago I saw someone here post some Lighthouse Albums with Encap slab pages and I thought that was a really attractive way of storing and showing my coins, so since 2021 I&#039;ve purchased 5 Lighthouse albums (Thanks Wizard!) - 2 of the wide ones that hold 6 pages with 12 slab compartments and 3 of the ones that hold 4 pages (I shop the sales).&nbsp; The funny thing is when you get a new coin that needs to go in the album.&nbsp; How do you folks deal with that sort of situation - you have to take a bunch out, advance them, update your spreadsheet / database, and figure out what&#039;s dropping out if you have limited space.&nbsp; I had been waiting to fill a new 4 page album - shifting my early American coppers, early quarters, etc around.&nbsp; It&#039;s quite a production - in addition to moving them manually, I wish I had a smarter system to relocate on the spreadsheet, it&#039;s cut and paste, cut and paste, cut and paste.&nbsp; At least my free Numista datebase doesn&#039;t need to reflect these changes.&nbsp; I think coin collectors are often a bit obsessive - and a touch compulsive.&nbsp; Ring any bells?&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; This time it was a 1796 and 1798 Large Cent that finally tipped me into reorganizing, but I had a Kentucky token, a Georgivs Triumphus 1783 and a bunch of others I had been putting aside until I was in the right mindset to do this, so a lot of things moved.&nbsp; Now it&#039;s going to be new fun to open albums and see different things.&nbsp;&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]1539818[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1539819[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1539815[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
