I've done some looking online but can't seem to find much. I've just started collecting silver coins and I'm looking for a good way to store them that will allow me and my son to view them. Would like it to be an album or binder with plastic coin sheets. Any recommendations?

Buy cardboard 2x2's. They have a cardboard frame with a clear Mylar panel to view the coin. You then use staples to seal it. They provide a stable holder with space for proper labelling. They are also available in 2.5x2.5 sizes for large coins. That's pretty much what I store my collection in, except for bullion and ancients which I put in SaFlips.

and remember to use pliers/needlenose to pinch the staples flat after puting them incase you ever stack the coins. This way the staple won't scratch others

Thanks! Wouldn't have thought of flattening the staples. Ha
Rest in Peace

You may also want to put them in zip lock bags. This some what, keeps the environment out. Moisture from humidity for example.

Any coin shop (or ebay) will have a flat clinch stapler. Buy one of those. No need for pliers and such. Cost about $10.
