I just use the mylar SAflips with a $30 impulse sealer to make a permanent seal on the coin. I cut the SAflips in half. Organized by country/type in my little binder and I keep a record in excel. I think it looks great. As you can see, I have not ran into a coin yet that I cannot seal!
Rather unique. I like how the coins look in your pages, free of any distractions.

A lot of really interesting responses!

And, as we are gravitating to the 2x2s, someone earlier mentioned, instead of staples, they found a glue/adhesive that would not corrode the coins. Do any of you know about that/where to find it? Or, what I would go hunt for? I really like the idea of using adhesive and not staples.

Yeah, I think it looks wonderful compared to dulling cardboard. I could even seal the actual pages at the top as well, but thats taking it a bit overboard. I like to feel a coin in my hand, and as funny as it sounds, even with the cardboard 2x2's, I didnt like it. The extra mylar on the Saflap keeps them in place just as well if not better then the 2x2's. They're also rated archival safe, I'm not so sure on the 2x2's.

I personally like Country, Denomination (or Denom. for short), and then date.
