I got some Plastic pages on Amazon that holds 42 coins with little tabs to keep the coins in similar to Uni-safe books but made in China. Could these be PVC? Has any one used them? This brand name is Better Jonny or Techinal which is a little blue book for 120 coins World Coin Book.
Rest in Peace

China=cheap=PVC most likely....smell like a swimming pool? Should have checked here first, imagine it's no return, right?

I don't trust anything but industry recognized brand name products from a reputable dealer or supply house, never ebay or Amazon. leave the books to Amazon.

As mentioned, I wouldn't use anything that does not clearly state "PVC free" and is not generally recognized as safe. You can get safe supplies on ebay and Amazon, but you have to be careful. Buy from reputable suppliers with clear descriptions and 100% feedback.

Archival Safe = great protection.

Limp pages probably have PVC or similar bad stuff.

Stiff pages are less likely to have PVC.

But all REAL good pages specifically address no PVC or plastisizer.

Buying cheap = harm to your coins more likely.

Pages and 2 x2's are not a place to save money.

Thanks for the good advice. I ordered supplies from a variety of places including Amazon partners ie coin suppliers. I also ordered some verdi-care. That order hasn't arrived yet. So I'm learning patience.
