newportnavyboy New Member United States 48 Posts	Posted 06/01/2017 9:15 pm Question for the group: How dou you house/protect your new purchases? -specifically When you purchase a new coin that is already in a 2x2--and is usually written on, do you keep them in that holder or re-house them in new ones ? What other methods do you use? Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 06/01/2017 9:53 pm For the most part, everyone has a different method of labeling, most prefer clean 2x2 instead of whiteout, etc. or depends on what media you use, a folder, an album, vinyl pages or other fancier means of storage. I like clean, start fresh approach. Report this Post to the Staff
loonielewy Pillar of the Community Canada 1775 Posts	Posted 06/01/2017 10:41 pm Agree with 999fine, I always re-package my new coin to match my writing on all the rest. Then you get the memory from when you put it there. "We are poor little lambs...who have lost our way...Baa...Baa...Baa" In memory of those members who left us too soon...

Then it goes into a new 2x2 cardboard holder . Depending on what coin it is ,most then goes into vinyl page loose leaf books . Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 188130 Posts	Posted 06/02/2017 10:55 pm Unless a slab or OGP I plan to keep intact, I remove them from whatever it is in (cardboard 2x2 or vinyl flip), photograph, then put in a Dansco album (to fill a hole) or a new cardboard 2x2.
