<p>[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 1413943, member: 5233"]What are you investing in to make you money? Are they coins. The reason I ask is because firstly, coins are a terrible investment. They are highly unpredictable and common drop in value. Don't collect to make money, collect because you enjoy the hobby. Secondly...would you buy valuable painting and then store it in a manila envelope? Of course not. So, why would you spend your hard earned money on coins and then not take care of them. Part of this hobby is the protection of the coins...not just the accumulation. And protection costs money. I understand you are young and have a limited budget. Based on that, I assume the majority of your collection is low dollar coins. That is fine, it's where we all started. But, be proud of your collection and store them safely. Honestly, I would go to a local coin shop and pick up some 2x2 flips. I'll let for less than 1 weeks worth of money (which you said was $15) you can get enough 2x2 holders to make care of your collection for months.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
