I'm sort of against any type of item for coins where it is required to push them into a slot. Regardless of how safe the material is, just getting coins into those slots ends up getting fingerprints all over them. And too, very little protection from air, moisture, spit, etc.
And as for only circulated coins. Usually if worn enough, they just fall out.

I bought one off ebay (from you?) and am very happy with it. I have the new Whitman Lincoln Wheat cent pair and the old Whitman Mercury dime one, in which I keep my #3 sets. I had the old Whitman IHC one for my #6 set with all AG to VG coins (except 1877 and 1909s which are repros from Koinpro) but it was pretty beat up and faded, so I was delighted to find a new version, though it would have been nicer if it matched the old Whitman's, but that would probably be a copyright issue. I now have a very old original beat up Whitman IHC board for sale. Anyway, the board is attractive and well made, reasonably priced and was well packed for shipping. |

Carl, I agree about the fingerprints, I put a thin glove on when I put my uncirculated Lincolns in the board. I had these sized to to worn coins and tested them to very worn and they hold up nice. I had that issue with coins falling out in Kent coin boards. I keep them framed under glass and it protects pretty good but if you have no intention on hanging them, a folder or album makes since . Jgfindring, Thanks for your feedback, There's a Mercury dime board coming out in the near future, it covers the entire series unlike the vintage boards. |

I keep mine framed and under glass also.
Don't know that that is good news about a Merc dime board. Have to buy a new board, and then the half dozen dimes that there wasn't a place for on the vintage board.

Just keep the size the same so I don't need a new frame too.

Lol you won't regret buying a few more! 11 x 14 will always be the standard size.

Mally27, you've got a good product, just don't hurt yourself and get kicked off of here. It's the best coin forum on the internet and you can learn a lot here, and hopefully contribute as well, but the rules are strict for very good reasons.

Yeah I signed up last night late with one eye open before I realised what I could and couldn't post. I actually like a lot of topics, wondering why I didn't discover this sooner.
