[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1892038, member: 112"]Yeah they are. But my response to Miko was in regards to his comment specifically about flips - not cardboard 2x2s. See (his) post #52. That said, coins can, and do, move around inside cardboard 2x2s, not as much as in the filps, but they still move. And that can cause wear on them as well. As well as light scratches from the cardboard dust due to that movement. The bottom line is this, cardboard 2x2s, all kinds of plastic flips, albums, envelopes, they all have their problems for coin storage. Every single one of them can cause harm to the coins in one or more ways. Hard plastic coin holders that hold the coin secure so it cannot move, and there are many types, are the best option when it comes to coin storage and protection because no harm can come to the coin as a result of using them. That cannot be said of any of the others.[/QUOTE]
