<p>[QUOTE="PaddyB, post: 1608461, member: 40017"]Just because they are not in a slab does not mean they are "rolling around in some drawer"! I treat all my old coins with a great deal of respect to ensure their condition is not worsened during their stay with me. (We are after all only custodians of our collections for future generations.) I just get no satisfaction out of owning a coin encased in plastic - it divorces it from its history (for me), and it is the history of old coins that most appeals to me. In the same way as going to a lap dancing club - you can look but you can't touch I am told, which seems to guarantee frustration!</p><p><br /></p><p>But each to their own - if slabbed coins do it for you, then don't let me stop you! :nice-smile:</p><p><br /></p><p>Very nice medal by the way.
