<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancient coin hunter, post: 2776062, member: 87200&quot;]Three ring binders for me with the PVC pages designed to hold those PVC coin folders and the little white cards you insert behind the fold with the attribution information. That way I can flip through quickly and find the coin I am looking for. I&#039;ve organized them chronologically from Augustus to Romulus Augustulus - oops I don&#039;t have that Romulus Augustulus solidus yet!</p><p><br /></p><p>I have another binder for Byzantine coins starting with Anastasius and ending with some of those trachy types. I&#039;ve got about 400 coins which I don&#039;t display because they are very worn, uncleaned, or just too crusty to deal with. Every so often I go through the pile and find something interesting, though. </p><p><br /></p><p>What&#039;s amazing is the lack of interest exhibited by others around me when I take out the binders. You&#039;ll get a &quot;oh, that&#039;s nice&quot; but that&#039;s about it. For me there is something almost magical about holding an 1800 year old piece of metal that passed through many hands, soldiers, merchants, widows, children and more. It&#039;s living history. Oh well, at least I can enjoy them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
