[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1001246, member: 15199"][LEFT][COLOR=#000000] Doug is correct in that you have to push the coin into the album. But not necessarily with your finger in contact with the coin. I first "open" the hole a little by inserting a "sacrifice" coin of the same size a few times so the hole is correct for the "good" coin, then I insert the good coin pushing with a newly unfolded non PVC flip. I expect the clean mylar film in a 2x2 would work also. Wear on the edges from slides can occur if the coin is not in the center of the holes, but such wear can also occur from any holder such as a non-pvc flip that has contact. Doug has hit it right that most beginners faced with an album will mis-insert the coin and use their bare hands, but they would also botch putting the coin into almost any holder including the favorite ( it seems ) air-tite.
