[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2933856, member: 112"]Fair enough, I stand corrected on that part.

[I]Sherman advises collectors and dealers: “The best solution at this point is to use Mylar flips, and ensure that large coins are ‘dropped’ into the flip rather than slid over the surface.” [/I] [I][/I] And that's from a news release in 2004, in other words, it is nothing new. And additional wear will be imparted to the coins from rubbing against the flips. Both of which makes them a bad idea for long term storage of coins.[/QUOTE]
