Idea for Coin Find display

[Andrus(ut)]

Hello all!
I think I have found a good method to display my finds. It shows a visual record and does not take up too much space. What I have done is bought a bunch of Whitman folders Dimes, Nickels, Penny's, Quarters, etc. I hope to get a type set for big cool old finds if they have them in the cheap Whitman style. I also purchased a Whitman Lincohn set to fill one each wheats that are found - the rest of the wheats go in a big bag.

Below is the first page of dimes - you can leave spaces as I did for future finds or just fill it. I kind of like to leave a few spaces with the older pages, but on newer silver I just fill the pages up. If you write small with a fine point pen you can write info for the coin - I record - Date, date of find, and place of find. Also you could put in other stuff as I wrote on the rosie that it was my first silver ever found back in 1970. (Too bad I quit hunting in 1970 and did not start again until 1999, crap) Anyway I thought some of the forum members might give this method a try. Take a look.

They also make some excellent plastic sleaves that you put your 2X2 slabs in. These sleaves go into a binder just like a piece of paper. They keep well and the coins wont tone.

Good idea! Some coin dealers have used holders from collections they buy and sell them cheap once they empty them of their coins. They may also have some of the type Dewcon mentioned.
