I wanted to get some slabs for my ungraded morgans just to keep everything tidy but all I can find is junk...
I looked on ebay and came across some made by BCW I think, but they looked kinda cheap. I think I have had a coin in one of them before and it cracked easley. Anyone know where I can get some better ones?

Hello,

"they have white inserts for many coins"

Sadly, not at all.

The white ones are going out of stock, because the manufacturer din't make them anymore.

I've found some good prices and shipping at Valley Coins. Not sure if I've seen the slabs there or not.

All of those green insert slabs are Coin World shells and are cheapest buying them directly from Coin World at the site John1 lists The BCW shells listed on the collections site by Fuzzy are the type used by most basement grading services. They are lighter weight then the Coin World shells and are usually about the size of the old small size ANACS shells.

I have a few CoinWorld slabs that I have used for quite a few years and I love them, the insert is probably black instead of green. You can find these empty shells like the CW slabs I mentioned on ebay in all different sizes also

Thanks everyone, I found some CoinWorld slabs on ebay with white and black inserts. These look much better than the BCW ones.
