You could add a slipcover to the three ring binder, but they coins will still slip out when out of the case. So may not solve your issue. The zip-up one sounds good, or you could try photo three ring archive boxes, they are enclosed on all sides to prevent dust getting on negative or slide pages, and snap shut.
Here is what I use for my slides and negs:

The black plastic three ring snap binder box, it's made wider than a standard binder to accommodate film pages and works well for the 2"x2" and 1.5"x1.5" pages as well.
Anything for slide storage should work also since they are the same size. Just don't get slide archival pages, they are way too thin to hold coins in 2x2 holders. Printfile don't have the best price on their coin page for the pages, but I've never found the box binders anywhere but at camera shops or their website, you'd think the coin suppliers would be all over them, as they keep out dust, pet hair, moisture (to a point) and light. For long term storage add a couple packs of desiccant if you live where it's humid. Keep your coins dry!
