<p>[QUOTE="crystalk64, post: 32671, member: 1873"]I will have to agree with Jody526 on this one. While I do have some items in original packaging I hate to add more to the list as packages gobble up storage space and like it or not many packages ARE NOT designed for long term storage. Throw in the fact that many are bulky and you have to use tupper ware tubs to store things. You can't believe what I have from various countries around the world! Wooden display cases, cardboard mounts, cardboard folders, credit card sized holders, felt display cases and on and on! I am running out of room unless I concentrate on COINS only which I am now doing! If a coin comes in "designer" packaging I am taking them out and putting them in 2X2s. I have found the old metal slide storage trays or cabinets are excellent for storing coins in 2X2's by country. Easy to get in and out and all in a very small space![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
