Keith67 Pillar of the Community United States 6802 Posts	Posted 12/08/2019 12:44 pm I just got these coins and not sure about the holders they are in. Good, Bad. or Ugly? Take them out or let them be? Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 12/08/2019 2:43 pm They look sufficient to me as to serving it's purpose but like spence says we'd be concerned about PVC . They look old like before they made PVC free holders . Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 8024 Posts	Posted 12/08/2019 2:55 pm If the plastic is thick, clear and flexible, there is a 99% chance it is PVC. Get them out. If they are mounted nicely in cardboard, I would take the whole card out, put it in a Ziplok bag (or a large non-pVC page with a single pouch which would look much nicer), and keep the original plastic envelope in another Ziplok in case you want to re-sell later in the "original package." The plastic around the Colombia sets already looks kind of goopy, and it looks like you'll just need to cut 'em out of those compartments. And ... Caldor? I never knew they sold coins!

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 12/09/2019 12:58 pm [sarcasm] PVC and cardboard, what's not to love? [/sarcasm] Report this Post to the Staff
Ballyhoo Pillar of the Community United States 1613 Posts	Posted 12/15/2019 7:36 pm I'm surprised there's no noticeable toning going on from the cardboard. Dulling, yes. Remove them, soak in acetone and use 2x2's or Air-Tites. Soak and air dry- do not rub.
