<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 4534035, member: 112"]To the best of my knowledge : the inner portion of the pages are not inert material, the outer portion the album is not inert material. And since Air-Tites are not airtight, and since plastic is air permeable, and since the cardboard outer covers and the cardboard inner pages put off gasses that are harmful to coins - I'd have to say they're not much different than any other album. Or to put it a different way, just as bad as any other album.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you wanna protect your coins to the best of your ability then EVERYTHING has to be made of inert material ! And then you still have to store the albums properly. And that means you don't leave them out - ya gotta put 'em away in sealed containers, kept in cool dark places where the temperature remains fairly constant, with desiccant rechargeable packs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
