    coin display ideas

    Hi guys, right now I just have my Lincolns in 2x2 flips in a binder and its ok as storage I suppose but Id like something a little better looking. Just wondered how you all have your "gems" displayed.

    I feel you can not beat the older style Capitol plastics boards. Occasionally these pop upon eBay for half or less of a new one. They stopped making this square style in the 1970'sbut you can erase the printed dates with a bit of light sanding and keep on plugging away. I have a 5th board with the more almost full, but not yet photographed.

      I find I look for coins in the old Capitol holders. The coins seem better protected and seem to just look better.

      EDIT: I really like WS Bob's images and coins. I haven't ever come across any of the Capitol Plastics LC "boards" before but would jump on one if I did.

          The capitol holders are nice and that would break down to $1.50 a coin which is a bit pricey but not too bad. I was also looking at the intercept shield coin book which would be roughly half that price

            It's a little pricey, but I keep my best ones in the hard plastic holders. The lesser ones are in 2x2s in a binder.
