<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gbandy, post: 1062726, member: 20695&quot;]I&#039;m putting together a set of Mercury dimes in about MS 63-64 (non-full bands) and I was planning to store them in an Intercept Shield Album once I had all of the coins so I would only be sliding the platic sheets over the coins one time. Is that really enough to damage the surfaces significantly? I could imagine if you were exposing the coins to sliding plastic covers repeatedly that would be a problem. It seems counterintuitive that a coin could go through the manufacturing process, sit in a box somerwhere for 60 years and then be damaged by a soft plastic sheet.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I like the intercept shield concept because of the protection from corrosion and other chemical reactions. It seems even if you&#039;re storing the coins in flips, 2x2s, or slabs you would still have to worry about atmospheric chemicals. Any thoughts?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>-Greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
