I just did a back page and GONE! Crap!
Here we go again. I just bought 500 Collector Safe black foam white backed snap closing 2x2's for my best 500 Jefferson and some
Buffalo nickels.
They do come with some cheesy stickers that are for date and grade but I won't use those. For the most part only about 1 in 25 is either scratched or has some defect on the white backing.
That's OK, but hope the ratio gets better. I'm saving them so that I can maybe get an exchange later from the dealer.
I am wondering if anyone else has used this type of holder and do they live up to the name?I have used the standard white 2x2's that are stapled closed for storing my 30 plus year accumulation. A small number of my nicks have been invaded by small amounts of green/brown verdigris, and some others have become hazed or carbon spotted. I have extras or will upgrade them for my main set.
I just hope these holders will not react to my coins after the transfer.
I've done 100 or so thus far and they look awesome in these holders.
I wear a spray painters nose/mouth facemask and a dollar size cello windowed 2x2 to squeeze and manipulate these into place. This is very time consuming, but I will be glad when my collection is lined up back to back in storage boxes with some anti oxy packets and in my safe.
Again, has anyone used these? I don't mind toning, but corrosion and reaction to the foam or plastic has me very concerned. Some of these coins were so much fun to find and I'd hate to see them get ruined. here's a link to what these look like.
