<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SorenCoins, post: 14355125, member: 73708&quot;]Hello there! I am working on making labels for my 2x2 (double-pocket) flips for my world coin collection and have posted a number of times about making sure the materials are good for coin storage. So far, everything looks good, so I am now designing the labels.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think they are about finished. I have basic coin information on the front and any provenance/information about where I got the coin on the back. I like the front design and don&#039;t plan on changing it, but I am unsure about the back design.</p><p><br /></p><p>Front:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1531589[/ATTACH]</p><p>Back (Poll Option #1):</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1531591[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I was showing my parents, and they thought that I should also include the provenance of the coin being in my collection on the back of the label (for future collectors and the like), so I made some examples (Poll Option #2):</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1531590[/ATTACH]</p><p>My family all really liked these, but the last thing I want to do is plaster my name on every flip if it takes away the emphasis on what makes them special (who had them before me, where I acquired them, etc.). Don&#039;t get me wrong--they look really nice. I just want to make sure it doesn&#039;t make it look so busy that the emphasis on the notes at the bottom of the label is lost. So, I made some examples where my collection name is smaller (Poll Option #3):</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1531592[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Kind of looks weird having the smaller font. Personally, I like it more with the same font.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is where you all come in! Which label design do you like more? Should I include the fact that it is in my collection? I mean, my collection name doesn&#039;t really matter right now as I am not a hugely accomplished numismatist like Eliasberg or Newman, so it feels a bit selfish in my point of view to put &quot;Soren Rollin Collection&quot; on them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I will also put a poll up as I am hoping for as many responses as possible. This is my long-term storage plan, so I want to do it right (so I don&#039;t ever have to change the labels). Clearly I am pretty good at overthinking things, so I figure you all may be more decisive than me <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
