Does anyone have a suggestion on what size printer labels I should use for 2x2 cardboard flips?
I've decided to put my high grade and mint state IHCs into Kointainers, then put those into 2x2 cardboard flips. They will be stored in archival binder pages. Dansco, I'm done with you!
I've encountered the same problem sticking raw coins into 2x2 cardboard flips and the Danscos - cardboard fibers on the coin, especially the rims. When using a nice loupe, they stick out like a sore thumb. On the 2x2s, the cardboard is often on the outside, but is still distracting.
I tried plastic flips for a while, but they get murky and SOMEHOW particles find their way in if you do not seal them. I won't mention the sliding windows on the Danscos, and how they dump loads of fibers and scuff up your coins if you are not careful about poking them all to one side... and you have to expose like 10 other coins to change one out.
I'm almost done with my
IHC set and about half are MS. Having them in a Dansco is just making me very uneasy. Oh, and by putting them into binders I can collect them how they are suppose to be collected, or how I want to collect them. Not how Dansco tells me to collect. For example, I'll be expanding my
IHC and Type Sets to include the set coins listed by PCGS.
By the way, can't wait for my new stereo microscope to get here!
