[QUOTE="jamesicus, post: 4757439, member: 14873"]Housing my thirty coins. Just a “quick down and dirty” photo: [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/60a46c6c-299c-4393-b665-50384320926f-jpeg.1159395/[/IMG] Click on image for enlarged view (more readable tags) I use an Abafil case. Twenty As/dupondius size or smaller coins in top tray, twelve approx. sestertius size coins in bottom tray. To the right are two standard coin book plastic pocketed insert sheets that match the Abafil trays and which display general coin identification cards with auction house/dealer/previous owner information tags and attribution/provenance information cards in the coin pocket underneath the general information card. These plastic information sheets are loose and are intended to be used when viewing the coins in the Abafil trays (like a “box of chocolates” ID sheet). Whenever I take coins with me when I leave the house I carry them in a “Shoulder Bag”. I put them in archival quality paper envelopes together with accompanying attribution tags and, in turn, vinyl flips cut from standard commercial sheets. I write a brief generic coin description on the outside of each envelope so that I can quickly identify them. The coins are well protected from the elements and I can easily get them out for examination, etc. I am not overly concerned about anyone cutting the strap on my shoulder bag and absconding with my coins, because the strap incorporates strands of tempered steel that resists all kinds of cutters - I had the clerk who sold it to me demonstrate that before I bought it.
