j-easy Valued Member United States 178 Posts	Posted 04/16/2008 10:20 pm dansco is probably the most popular brand, whitman are a little cheaper but most people believe they are a inferior product. and there is also intercept shield which is a new product on the market and the most expensive. I would recommend staying away from the folders. http://www.brent-krueger.com/ and http://valleycoin.com/ both seem to have pretty competitive prices, although I have yet to place an order from either one Report this Post to the Staff
latman100 Pillar of the Community Australia 1040 Posts	Posted 04/16/2008 11:21 pm Try a local coin dealer in your area. You are new to collecting so tell the dealer what you have and what you want to do. It is a good idea to build a relationship with a dealer if you want to buy coins in the future. And they are a great source of advice. Report this Post to the Staff
Yass Pillar of the Community Australia 652 Posts	Posted 04/17/2008 04:30 am Until you have something worthwhile to put in an album, I wouldn't bother with one. I keep my coins in 2x2s and store them in a box. I used to keep them in the appropriate plastic sleeves, but I finished up with so many that space became a real problem, and at $1.50 a sleeve, very expensive. I have a couple small numisco album that can be used to carry about to show off my coins. They cater for coins in 2x 2s. For the important ones, I have them in Dansco albums.

Peter THOMAS Pillar of the Community Australia 2830 Posts	Posted 04/17/2008 3:34 pm G'day, I respectfully agree with Yass: storage and display are important issues for collectors. But, it is easy to spend money on plastic & cardboard, that you'd rather be spending on coins. Certainly, give your treasures the full treatment, but you'll find yourself becoming selective about which coins go into 2x2, etc. The others: somewhere dry, where they can't rattle much.
