[QUOTE="V. Kurt Bellman, post: 3153264, member: 71723"]You can examine ANY of my albumed coins with as much magnification as you like and you will NOT find a fingerprint. Have you ever seen a "particle transfer roller"? I use a "pusher" made of the same material to insert coins into an album. It's the same material used to remove foreign matter from digital camera sensor chips. Every year when I get my new mint set to update my sets, getting them into my albums is about a three hour production. The job isn't done until I see the coins are NOT going to touch the slides. Except for one album, my 7070, I NEVER album thick coins. My early copper goes in cotton inserts and then into 2x2 kraft envelopes. Bottom line: if you're not prepared to go all OCD, it's better not to use albums.[/QUOTE]
