<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 858179, member: 19065"]You didn't confuse me. I knew what you meant and was inserting a bit of humor. Also, you might be careful in thinking keeping your coins in books is protecting them. Certain papers contain acids from the paper pulp and certain inks contain chemicals that can gas off and react with the metal composition of coins. You may actually be harming your coins by trapping them in between the pages and card stock boards of book covers rather than keeping them safe. Take some of green18's suggestions for storage an your coins will be much much more safe than if left in between the covers of books. The only paper you would likely be able to place coins between with little to no effect over time would be archival grade papers that are lignin free, unbleached and which have no inks printed on them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
