<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jamesicus, post: 3623226, member: 14873&quot;]I posted something similar to the following elsewhere ……………</p><p><br /></p><p>I now store, and carry with me everywhere I go, my entire (reduced) collection of twenty Roman Imperial coins in my Messager Bag (MB). Coins are in archival quality paper envelopes together with accompanying attribution tags (tested for pH suitability) and, in turn, strips of three vinyl flips cut from standard commercial sheets They fit neatly in my MB. I write a brief generic coin description on the outside of each envelope so that I can quickly identify them.</p><p><br /></p><p>We no longer maintain a bank safe deposit box and I can’t remember the combination to our house safe (it’s complicated). My coins are well protected from the elements and I can easily get them out and fondle, admire &amp; dream about their history when I am sitting in my recliner watching old movies at night, and I can easily show them off to people whenever I please.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am not overly concerned about anyone cutting the strap on my MB 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.</p><p><br /></p><p>Nothing is fool proof, that is for sure, but this is a satisfactory system for me in my dotage.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/e435940e-67b0-42c7-893f-42bdf1d338f3-jpeg.883179/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
