Coin Holder Questions
I apologize if these are dumb questions.
With the standard 'Fold and Staple', is there a particular brand to purchase or stay away from? Will any mylar do? Also, can I get away with just putting in a single staple? If more staples are recommended, is it better to put one along each edge or put them in at each corner? I see there are Air-Tite Coin Holders which come with some kind of foam insert and Direct Fit Air-Tite Coin Holders which do not require the foam insert. Can anyone tell me the advantages or disadvantages of each or when to use one versus the other. TIA, Brian |

news I apologize if these are dumb questions. No question is dumb! With the standard 'Fold and Staple', is there a particular brand to purchase or stay away from? Will any mylar do? Also, can I get away with just putting in a single staple? If more staples are recommended, is it better to put one along each edge or put them in at each corner? I see there are Air-Tite Coin Holders which come with some kind of foam insert and Direct Fit Air-Tite Coin Holders which do not require the foam insert. Can anyone tell me the advantages or disadvantages of each or when to use one versus the other. The only difference is that Direct Fit type holders are available in far fewer diameters than the Ring type. Both are made of the same inert materials. Ring color is just a matter of personal taste;-) Fine holders, excellent quality, I am using them all the time. The same company is also making some astonishing beautiful wooden chests which can store coins in Air-Tite holders. rgrds -- E' mai possibile, oh porco di un cane, che le avventure in codesto reame debban risolversi tutte con grandi puttane!

I would have much preferred that the top of the case go all the way over to lay flat (180 degrees). Perhaps they have fixed this limitation? oly |

I would have much preferred that the top of the case go all the way over to lay flat (180 degrees). Perhaps they have fixed this limitation? Nope, as far as I know. But nevertheless, nice heavy wooden chests for a classy presentation... -- E' mai possibile, oh porco di un cane, che le avventure in codesto reame debban risolversi tutte con grandi puttane!
