I'm trying to organize the collection a bit better, and I'm trying to decide if minor to moderate lams belong in 2x2s or tubes. Thoughts?

Good question. For me, all 'minor' lamination' issues go into tubes. Minor would typically mean a visible, single, light lamination 'crease'. Dramatic peels, multiple lamination ruptures, etc. end up in 2x2s. Ultimately, the collector decides what best works for them.

You could check ebay sold and get an idea on what buyers are paying a premium for. The higher value ones go in 2x2 and the lower value in tubes.

When YOU think it is neat enough to be worth putting it in one.

To keep it from peeling off more, I'd put it into a 2X2. If there was a circulated example, I put it into a tube.
