<p>[QUOTE="AdamL, post: 355191, member: 6029"]In my experience GDJMSPis right. You do have to touch the obverse of the coin to put it in the album, which is not good even if you are wearing white cotton gloves. I've already begun my album of walkers, and I bought gloves just for putting the coins in. Most of the coins aren't worth a fortune, and the key dates that are expensive are already well circulated, cuz thats the only way I can afford them, hehe. So I'm not too worried about it. But with my future projects, any sets I work on that aren't pulled from circulation will probably not be put in albums, simply because you can't properly handle coins while placing them in the album. If your albums allows you to simply drop the coin into the slot without applying any pressure, I would be concerned that the album isn't holding the coin securely enough to keep it in place...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
