Igleos Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 12/07/2011 8:39 pm Hi guys. I am trying to look for a placemat for my coins. Something that would allow me to put the coins on the table without any worry about damaging them. I have been looking at various stores and have not really seen anything. Anyone have any suggestions? Report this Post to the Staff

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 12/07/2011 11:47 pm I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for. Do you just want to protect coins while you're working with them. I use old towels when I'm sorting and searching. But I never leave them there for very long. Report this Post to the Staff

allranger Pillar of the Community United States 1391 Posts	Posted 12/14/2011 4:51 pm I use clean towels to work. Lay the whole thing out on the table to make sure I don't accidently drop anything. You might try looking for some felt/velvet at a crafts store. I know they sell stuff like that by the yard. Then you could get a board and glue or staple it on if you were looking for something like that. Report this Post to the Staff
