<p>[QUOTE="usmc60, post: 2461013, member: 76739"]Let me say welcome to coin talk. It seems you've already have received some very good information. Even though GDJMSP and myself may have difference of opinions on certain issues, he is given you some very excellent advice, and at least that's one thing we agree on. I myself do not like coins that are slab. But that's just my preference, I enjoy feeling a coin in my hands not some piece of plastic. I recently came up with the same predicament that you're in. I wanted to protect my coins and be able to show them. I've recently started a new binder collection of homestead DDR's. And needed something to put them in that's easily accessible because with these quarters there is new ones being added every day. I found a three ring binder that will accomplish the task. The only problem with the basic three ring binders is that it has three open sides that allow light to get into the coins. Florescent light and UV light is known to damage coins over a period of time. So I found this zip up binder. It may cost a little more but I believe it's worth it. Now for the inserts holders I'm using the 2 inch non-PVC holders with that 2 inch non-PVC flaps that seems to do the job for my needs. Because I'm in that folder on a daily basis. But if you are only going to go in your folder once in a while to either add to your collection or to show your collection and you are worried about air contamination. There is a very easy and cheap way to solve that problem. Nowadays they have these vacuum baggies you can by. Put your folder in one of the baggies and suck all the air out, that way you do not have to worry about air contamination or humidity. A simple and cheap solution to that problem.Again welcome and enjoy the photos.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie24" alt=":blackalien:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[ATTACH=full]515911[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
