<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Yabado, post: 25746, member: 1753&quot;]I store my coins the way most ancient coin collectors do: in flips on a plastic slot page in a 3 ring binder.&nbsp; I&#039;m still not sure if flips or cardboard windows are the best storage system, but the dealer I by from uses flips.&nbsp; He&#039;s 80 yrs old and has been dealing in coins for about 60 yrs.&nbsp; Unfortunately his hearing is sooo bad, he&#039;s pretty well deaf, so it&#039;s really hard to talk to him.&nbsp; Although he really knows his stuff, conversation is ltd. to the extreme.&nbsp; As far as I know, I&#039;ve done nothing to harm my coins (although everytime I hold one in its flip, I always feel like I&#039;ve damaged it!).</p><p>Is my way a good way of storing coins?&nbsp; I&#039;m quite sure I didn&#039;t cause it to get bronze disease.&nbsp; I seem to find more coins in my collection that I think have BD, but probably don&#039;t.&nbsp; It&#039;s getting very hard to tell what is and what isn&#039;t diseased.&nbsp; It makes me so upset and depressed, I really don&#039;t like even looking at ANY of my coins anymore.&nbsp; It seems this whole thing has really ruined collecting coins for me.</p><p>The sad thing is, I still have NO IDEA how to cure it.&nbsp; Since NO ONE can give me a definate answer, I feel very alone on this entire topic.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
