plonker Valued Member United States 462 Posts	Posted 08/31/2013 1:26 pm Hi , I have been using saflips for larger crown size coins such as double thalers so I can fit them in to my Dansco 2x 2 pockets. I got these from ebay seller with the brand Saflips. So far they have been working out really well. However I see them kind a glued together with spots on them when I take them out for the before inserting the coins. I was wonder if anyone else is using Saflips and see the same behavior. I am just concerned that there is something in there gluing the plastic together that may harm the coins in the long run. Report this Post to the Staff

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19949 Posts	Posted 08/31/2013 10:50 pm PET (polyethylene...), coin safe. Just keep in mind, they do let a lot of air in. Make sure you put them inside ziplocks! And if you really want to protect the coins, put those ziplocks into Tupperware or similar containers. Remember the coin storage rule of thumb...

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 08/31/2013 11:03 pm Saflips are safe, but I prefer cardboard / mylar flips. One problem with what I prefer: The mylar in these seems to be very slighly atmospheric absorbent, and that can result in them being stuck tight in soft PVC album pages, as if glued in. That can result in them being impossible to slide out again. To avoid this problem, I use NON PVC archival quality clear polypropylene album pages. Report this Post to the Staff
Bababooey Valued Member United States 374 Posts	Posted 09/01/2013 12:43 am Have some of those. What does heat sealable mean? Does that mean then can be closed and no air will get in? After which the coin must be cut out? Report this Post to the Staff
