[QUOTE="cphine, post: 721441, member: 20940"]In my roll searching for silver, I've also put together a couple nice looking sets of Kennedy half dollars. I bought a Whitman Album to display them in. My original thoughts were that the holes would be large enough to fit the coin in and it would be held in place by the plastic slide on either side. To my dismay, the forcing and prodding necessay to get the coin into the hole has me a bit freaked. Even though I'm wearing gloves to protect from fingerprints, it almost feels like I'm knocking a grade off the coin just putting it into the album. I'm guessing given this situation that when I go to store my uncirculated coins that I'll avoid the albums and just use the slightly more expensive air tites and cases for display so as to avoid this. Is there a trick to getting them in less forcefully? Do perhaps Dansco or Intercept Shield offer a not so tight fit? Thanks for suggestions. ~Christian[/QUOTE]
