[QUOTE="jody526, post: 22275, member: 578"]Don't worry about it. We can choose to answer you or not. We enjoy sharing our hobby, and answering questions is a great way for us to share. My main collecting interest has always been uncirculated Jefferson nickels. If you choose to take on the task of putting together a set, I'm sure you will find the experience very rewarding indeed. If that is a project you would be interested in, I would strongly recommend that you study this website carefully... [URL=varietynickels.com/]LINK #1[/URL] I store my uncirculated nickels in several different ways. One of my favorites is the Dansco album, similar to this one... [URL=www.kcshop.com/DanscoAlbums.htm]LINK #2[/URL] I like them because they aren't overly expensive, and are a very professional looking display. They also allow for viewing both sides of your coins. One word of advice though; be sure to push your coins all the way down into their holes, and then only slide the top window when necessary. This will prevent the Mylar window from rubbing the surfaces of your coins. Another way I store my coins are in 2x2's like these... [URL=www.kcshop.com/MylarHoldersandSafeFlips.htm]LINK #3[/URL] ...which I then put into 20 pocket pages, like these... [URL=www.collectorssupplyhouse.com/c_holder_page/20pocket.htm]LINK #4[/URL] ...which I then put into 3 ring binders, like these... [URL=www.katespaperie.com/3ringbinders1.html]LINK #5[/URL] I only use those for circulated sets. Keep in mind that neither of these methods is preferred for long term storage, but they are relatively inexpensive and if you store them in a low humidity environment, they can stay that way for quite a long time. Holders like AirTites, Kointains and Snaplocks are probably better, but you can be prepared to pay more for them. You're welcome, and remember; there are many good ways to store and display your collections. I have only mentioned a couple of my personal favorites. Good luck. [I]~Jody~[/I][/QUOTE]
