<p>[QUOTE=&quot;David Atherton, post: 2444511, member: 82616&quot;]For sometime I&#039;ve been debating on whether or not to radically change my coin storage method. Up until now I have kept my coins in 2x2 cardboard holders stored in coin boxes. There are some drawbacks to this method: not enough room to write information on the holders, staples (enough said), a pain to open and once opened the holders had to be discarded, kind of cheap looking.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, after reading all the replies in Sallent&#039;s recent storage topic I have totally changed how I store my coins. I decided to use archival paper envelopes (Doug&#039;s post had something to do with it) for a few reasons: ease of access to the coins, lots of room to write attribution info, inexpensive, and there is a long tradition of them being used for ancient coin storage. So, out went the cardboard 2x2s after an exhaustive 5 day switch. It was fun but grueling! An added bonus, I can fit more envelopes in the coin boxes than I ever could with the old 2x2s!</p><p><br /></p><p>I just completed the move tonight and must say I&#039;m very pleased and relieved it&#039;s done.</p><p><br /></p><p>If anyone else uses envelopes and has any neat tips please feel free to post.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
