<p>[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1062777, member: 22585"]It's frustrating to hear people say that using an album is bad for the coin or is a bad choice. :headbang: Just be careful putting in the coins, wear gloves, and make sure they are seated properly so the plastic slides out easy. Of course there is always a risk in scratching a coin, but there has to be some debris, or some serious rubbing for a soft piece of plastic to scratch a metal coin. ...hello? </p><p><br /></p><p><b>We can't all afford to slab coins or have coins worth millions of dollars and have to worry that the plastic scratched it and just dropped it a grade, and now my kids can't go to college.</b></p><p><br /></p><p>I love albums. It is a lot easier to view or show off your coins. They look nice, they sit well on a bookshelf, etc.. So don't be put off by people speaking negatively about Danscos. Therefore we shouldn't worry ourselves over these comments.</p><p><br /></p><p>Millions of collectors can't be wrong.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>"well put them in 2x2's"</b> ... Really? 'cause that looks awesome! In a binder just like the kids use at school. No thanks. Then you will hear... ohhh watch out for the staples, in 500 years the metal will react with the paper and your coin will explode.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>"Just keep them in original packaging</b>" - really? All collectors should buy everything in original packaging! Wrong, I'm not Bill Gates. And lets have a huge box full of mint and proof sets that we keep in the closet. - exciting!</p><p><br /></p><p><b>"Get them slabbed"</b> - Ok, ill go ahead and get state quarters, roosevelt dimes, Jeff's... get em all slabbed!
