Coin Storage Albums

How many rings does your coin album have?
We (as The Purple Penny) would like to do a quick survey about how you store your coins. What we want to know is how many rings does your coin album or folder have? Generally album pages come with a universal fit for 2, 3, or 4 ring binder types. But what do you use or what do you think is best?

Have multiple of all, 2,3,and 4. Not a fan of the 2 ring.

[ausjack]

I'm the same and have multiple of each but no big two ring just the PP mini albums and mainly three ring on the bigger albums but do have a couple of four rings.

[stevo1962]

I need to save on space so I use the smaller 60 coin folders with no rings because they lie flatter

[Triggersmob]

I don't use albums.

You need 4 rings otherwise the pages full of coins will droop and distort.

Prefer 4 rings, but do have some 3 ring. 4 ring  D ring are much more stable.

Using mainly 3 ring binders, but of course they are from the Purple penny. The outer sleeve ensures there is maximum protection of the folder when stored upright. The only small queery I  may make is that the clipable binder rings do sometimes become unlocked. :good:

Yeah,some of mine are from the 1960's but they just sit in boxes so no harm done.
I've been using the folders that zip up lately,School type things,they are all 2 rings but providing you don't place too many sheets in them and store them flat they are OK.

I use those zipper two ring ones for my notes, as well Basil

[JeffH]

Most have three D rings but any I purchase now I go for four rings.
Not important if you store them lying down, which I usually do long term.

"Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his own tail. It won't fatten the dog."
Mark Twain -Speech, 23/11/1900

I just noticed your tag Jeff,not bad for 1900.
Its the same with the Dole,every time a new Govt. puts the squeeze on the crime rate goes up,its costs the State Govt. $500(approx.?)a day to keep a Prisioner,Federal Govt. saves peanuts in the general scheme of things.
I know every one capable should work but its also better for all taxpayers to contribute to some sort of welfare so we can walk down the street without getting hit over the head for our wallet.

And with cutting funds for disable people, A & T S I indigenes etc. etc. Short term gain and no thought of the long term.

[ausjack]

Or the people getting them, what can I do if they cut my disability and I'm not the only one that would be worried about that
