<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CohibaCris, post: 13672, member: 904&quot;]There are two main concerns when using albums for coin storage....</p><p><br /></p><p>The first are the plastic slips.&nbsp; When they are in place they are good protectors of your coins, but when they are in motion they can scratch the surfaces of your babies! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; I would make sure that the coin&#039;s highest point is well below the area where the plastic slide could touch it, and you should be OK.</p><p><br /></p><p>The second regards the paper.&nbsp; Most if not all albums take some precaution with the paper that they use to make the page cores.&nbsp; The problem is that the chemicals used to make the paper can lead to toning (Some nice, some just plain corrosion).&nbsp; The one album that I know of that will truely protect the coin is the Intercept Shield albums.&nbsp; They have the specially treated pages that will make it a little harder for the coins to tone.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
