<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ed Zak, post: 22338, member: 824&quot;]Unfortunately, my ex-wife got my nice coin cabinet in the our divorce years ago.&nbsp; Since it was acquired while we were married, she got it, but at least I was able to keep my coins that were acquired BEFORE we were married (wriping my brow).&nbsp; She tried to go after them, but at least I proved my grandfather started me off with coins I still have today.&nbsp; Let&#039;s see...I got my coins, a pot and pan, a place setting and a floor mattress...I guess that was fair.</p><p><br /></p><p><i>Sorry sylvester...just thinking about how much I lost in my divorce including my coin cabinet just makes me...where is that punching bag?</i></p><p><br /></p><p>Back to the issue.&nbsp; I like 2x2&#039;s stored in sheets in 3 rings binders.&nbsp; I use Avery labels to record the date, mint and mintage numbers.&nbsp; I used to add the grade, but too many times, people would say, &quot;Nice coin...but it is more of a MS62 versus MS63.&quot;&nbsp; That is why I DON&#039;T describe the grade anymore.&nbsp; I leave it open for discussion.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I like to use Intercept Shield 2x2&#039;s for the good stuff.&nbsp; If you want to keep your coins from discoloration or unwanted toning, nothing beats this stuff compared to anything else out there.&nbsp; Eagle holders sell sheets that hold the Intercept Shields and they work nicely.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, low humidity, PVC-free, inert materials are important as discussed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
