It is mostly how you store them that makes a difference and the location you live in too. The location is important due to availability of Albums, additional pages, additional slides, etc. For example Dansco is really popular in the West since they are made there. Whitman is really popular in the MidWest since they are made there. Littleton if popular in the East but not to much since so many people have bad things to say about thier coin prices, service, etc. Intercept Shields are popular with people that actually believe those will protect their coins since thier adds say so. </p><p>Now as for my 2 CENTS. I use Whitman mostly due to when I was a kid that&#039;s all their was so that is what I started with. Been using Whitman for a long, long, long time. Way back when I was a kid I knew that it was what was in the air that effected coins so I placed my Whitman Folders in plastic bags. As time went on I changed to Albums and still placed them in plastic bags until Zip Lock came out then all Albums moved to the gallon sized Zip Lock bags. After well over 60 years of collecting, no toning, tarnishing, corroding, staining, etc on any of my coins. The very first coin to now still looks like they did when I collected them. </p><p>I also like the massive variety of Albums, blank pages, blank album covers, additional slides, press on gold numbers/letters and lots more from Whitman. </p><p>I like the ability to make my own Albums. For instance a Liberty Head/Mercury Dime/Roosevelt Dime Album all in one binder. Of course have to leave out errors and proofs. </p><p>To each thier own but if you know how to protect your coins properly, the manufacturer of the Albums is really not important.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
