I been wondering how you guys keep your TPG's.

I found a small plastic bag that fits over the whole slab. But I'm wondering is that safe?

I don't want the coins to tone or change color.

PCGS boxes for most of them, some in the light house sheets inside their album.

I use Eagle Certified Coin Albums.
There are others like them.
Littleton I think makes some.
And possibly Lighthouse.

I forgot, I am also storing some modern ones inside an ANACS box.

So I guess the plastic bags are safe?

Thanks for your inputs

You all can always ship them to me for storage! I'll take really good care of them I swear!

I put mine in either the TPG boxes or in individual mylar bags, then tupperware or pelican cases sealed up with a good amount of desiccant. Keep them dry and in the dark is best, to prevent unnatural toning, or darkening. Copper coins are my biggest concern in changing color.

Oh yeah, then either in the safe or safe deposit box.
