[QUOTE="kvasir, post: 71076, member: 4139"]i'm glad this topic is brought up again, because i do have questions of my own. The one on the FAQ forum is locked. I got this roll of Clearphane (R) film from an art/craft store last week. The label on the film says:[B] Meets US FDA requirements for direct food contact under 21 CFR 177.1520 (a)(1), b(b) and (c) 1.1 and 3.1 and 21 CFR 178.3130[/B]. Now the question is, is it safe for my coins for the long term? I figure it'd be a cheap way to do home-make holders for my coins. Cut a rectangular strip, put in coin on one half and fold to enclose, then staple it. Which brings to my next question. I'm not planning to use cardboards to make little 2x2's i'm just gonna staple 3 sides, anything I should be aware of regarding to the staples? Obviously it shouldn't touch the coin, but i'm worry it may rust over the years.[/QUOTE]
