I have some special issues and commemorative coins in OGP, but most of my collection are circulated coins in albums for each denomination.

I don't bother with albums.

It depends on the value of the coin. The valuable ones I keep in individual Airtite capsules. The ordinary coins I use a Lighthouse coin box with 2x2 cardboard flip holders and I just sort the coins in ascending order of date and then denomination

Put coins in an Album. Purchase what is called Zip Lock Plastic Bags. Put your Albums in those and fold over excess. Should last hundreds of years. If not, let me know.

I use Dansco albums. I collect by series and have a US Type set (7070) as well.

Dansco has slipcovers for their albums that assists in preserving the coins inside.

For common coins I use 2x2's, put those in 20 coins sheets and those go in binders by coin. If it is a better but worn coin I use a mylar 2x2 instead.

For my AU raw sets or my unc raw sets I use airtites and put those in the special 20 coin holders they sell for those and those go in a binder.

My graded coins go in the slab holders that hold 9 coins, or in the PCGS/NGC slab boxes.

I tried so many different methods but have finally settled for the two I find the easiest. Better coins in Airtites and in Airtite tubes. Lower grade coin in Saflips and in a box.
