Very nice Bill....yes, the coins look great. I may adopt your idea to my extra recent proof Lincolns as I am really worried about what these new cents are going to look like down the road in 10 or 20 years. Great idea!

Appreciate all the comments,
There're coins in these pictures from the Pitman sale that I removed from their imprisoment.
Most were collected raw over the years but you don't see so many nice raw coins anymore and I sure do miss that.
The twenty-five cent tubes will hold eleven one cent coins inside their capsules.
Cheers, Bill

What do each individual plastic sleeves cost you and then you store them in what size container?
So cost for each tube would be approx?
Thanks
Are these plastic sleeves available anywhere?

Colhand1 They're not expensive even now I see them online for $26.95 for a box of 100.
The twenty-five cent coin tubes will hold eleven one cent coins inside capsules.
It was seven or eight year ago and it cost me about $45.00 to put away a couple hundred coins.
I'm pleased so far the coins all seem the same colour as when I put them there.
It's also nice that if you wish to get at the coin they will come apart so you can take pictures or examine more closely then just press it back together.
Cheers, Bill

Neat!
I have cents in capsules and nickel tubes.
Never knew they'd work together so nicely.
Thanks for sharing

I tried the nickel tubes with the cent capsules I have and they did not fit.
Gotta pick up a quarter tube to try.

I remember you talking about cutting coins out of ICCS holders back on the CCRS. At that time I thought it was counter-productive to do so. Now, it makes perfect sense to me.
The tag is just someone's opinion. The coin is the coin. Sometimes we lose sight of that.

BmOney, sorry about the misinformation your right it's the 25 cent tubes you need.
I'll correct that in the earlier post if I can.
1cent, what I hate most is you can't see the coin inside the flips. I find the hard slabs are much better for viewing but with this system I still have access to the coin.
Cheers, Bill
