Besides flips with no staples look so much better in the heavy duty 20 piece page sheets. I only use flips for halves, quarters, dimes, nickels and cents. I buy airtites for Silver Dollar coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have a complete collection of Silver Eagles and I have purchased airtites to preserve them.
