<p>[QUOTE="AdamL, post: 542894, member: 6029"]I don't think the slides in my Littleton albums damage my coins at all. First I put in the back slide. Then I carefully put in the coin deep enough that I can slide in the front without it making contact with the coin. And then I'm done. I know that Doug's response to that will be that I am putting tiny hairlines on the coins when I touch their surface with my cotton gloves while pushing them into place. I can't completely deny that. But I will say that I can position the coin by only touching its edges and then just a slight nudge will safely secure the coin in its place. So I guess the touching the surface of the coin while inserting it might cause a couple of very tiny hairlines, although I haven't noticed a difference, even on the unc coins. But all this talk of the slides damaging the coins, well I have to respectfully disagree.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
