To help with my Jefferson grading I need to assemble at least 3 sets of unslabbed nickels: - a circulated wear set (AG to AU) - a strike set (from weak to strong in MS) - a luster set (from low to high in MS) I want to store these sets and use them for reference while grading. My problem is storage. If I put them in Airtites there is nothing to keep the group together and in the right order. If I put them in some kind of album then aren't all in a single row. I need something, perhaps, like a capital holder, but for a generic set of nickels. Something vaguely like this, but with just nickel holes: But I'm open to other options. I might just tape them to a piece of cardboard if I get desperate, but I would like to see both sides. Does this make sense? Any good storage option for this? Thanks!
If you are handy with woodworking or anything, you can make your own lenght of holders that will hold the airtites (in a small drawer type container), then you can put them in order of their grade, and if you need to look at the reverse, you can take the air-tite holder out and look at the back.
Capital plastics will make custom holders any way that you like. I suggest you try them. http://www.capitalplastics.com/
How about taking a dansco nickle album page, an old fashion chopper type paper cutter and slice the page into 4-5 sections. Space it right and should have normal album type protection.
