I have most of my graded coins stored in the blue boxes that they come back in.
I have several of these now and I am finding it hard to locate a particular coin when I need to.
I have my 25mm Silver proof dollar set in a couple of albums using the slab type pages and this works well.
I have just bought a few of the lighthouse cases to put a few coins in and they look rather nice.

oh my florin

Nice looking boxes trout considering a small glass one for a special coin (2 more days till lift off ;)) tho it is hard cause the ancients I have are in double thickness holders so it doesn't fit in most boxes. End up with it in side ways in my PCGS box taking up like 7 or 8 spaces.

This is what I am considering for the little bugger :)

If I were going to collect expensive coffins, I'd want them on display.

So I'd probably make something out of clear acrylic channel. There's a variety that's slightly tapered and has a small amount of flex, so it would hold the slabs securely. A little elbow grease and imagination, and you could make a pretty stunning display.

Then just cycle slabs out of storage occasionally, sit back and admire. :)

That does look rather "Swish" :good:

For what they are these are not that expensive and the "coffins" are fantastic with the grandkids, They can handle the coins with their sticky filthy fingers all day and all I have to do is use the good old spray and wipe.
NO damage whatsoever to the coin :yahoo:
