[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2774138, member: 10461"]That is a very handsome display indeed. I took a different tack entirely for my "budget" [URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/picture-repost-my-twelve-caesars-roman-collection-from-2011-2013.296895/']12 Caesars set.[/URL] Most of you traditionalists who like your coins "totally naked" like the ones in the OP will differ, and some may even scoff. Say what you will about plastic slabs (I totally understand, and think picking up and handling the coins in that Abafil tray would be wonderful), but the slabs [I]do[/I] display nicely, in a manner that even non-collectors can appreciate.

I mostly use slabs for the ancient portion of my present collection because most of the rest of the collection is certified [I]non[/I]-ancient pieces. I do it largely for uniformity's sake. But if I collected [I]only[/I] ancients, I would certainly want a tray that looks like that one you posted in the OP, with an unobtrusive method of tagging and organizing the coins![/QUOTE]
