BLadd Pillar of the Community United Arab Emirates 557 Posts	Posted 11/08/2012 9:51 pm Hello, I have a few 2012 silver quarters from Littleton that are in the plastic bags. Is it okay to move these into flips or should I keep them in the bags? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

Williamsonj320 Pillar of the Community United States 538 Posts	Posted 11/09/2012 02:01 am I remove them usually for albums or other more secure storage. They can move around quite a bit in those little plastic bags and may cause scratches. Report this Post to the Staff

They are, however not useful for display in an album. Keep the bags for coins that you don't need to display, or use them for other storage requirements, such as small screws, nuts etc.. I use small clip lock bags for storage of small mineral and gemstone specimens, but they should only be used for coins with one specimen per bag. Report this Post to the Staff
