<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2550485, member: 1892&quot;]I guess it depends on how you envision the use case for your &quot;storage.&quot; The only possible rationalization for PVC-based flips is temporary storage for use in conjunction with shows and sales-based environments - Mylar is admittedly capable of scratching <b>nice</b> coins if you insert and remove them often enough, and will eventually crack with repeated handling. A few days in a (new) holder of the PVC type won&#039;t hurt anything.</p><p><br /></p><p>But you&#039;re not &quot;storing&quot; it if you handle it that often....</p><p><br /></p><p>Me, I image my stuff in sufficient detail to forestall the need to ever &quot;handle&quot; it again - the images are all the &quot;handling&quot; I need once they exist - so Mylar flips are a strict rule in my collection. PVC plasticizer degrades into hydrochloric acid (among other things), and patina won&#039;t stop that. I&#039;m just_not taking the chance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
