Coin Collecting Folders and Coin Albums

Coin collecting folders are a great way to organize and display a collection of coins. These folders have individual pockets for each type of coin that you are collecting. They are also available with a cover and spine for easy storage and protection. They can be used to store raw or slabbed coins and coin rolls as well as mint and proof sets. Various manufacturers produce these storage boxes including Lighthouse, Whitman and Intercept Shield. They are designed to protect your coin collection from handling, extreme temperature fluctuations and corrosive elements found in the atmosphere.

Unlike penny boards, which have limited space and cannot expand as your collection grows, these folders offer ample room for each coin you are collecting. This is another reason why they are popular and continue to make numismatics accessible to the masses.

If you are new to coin collecting, these coin folders are an excellent and affordable way to start your collection. They are also a great way to introduce children to the hobby of numismatics. They are also an excellent way to display your collection for others to enjoy.

The next step up from the coin collecting folder is a coin album. Coin albums have the same advantages as coin folders but they can be expanded to hold a larger collection. It is important that you choose a coin album that is made from acid-free and PVC-free materials. This is because these plastics off-gas acids into the stored environment which can cause damage to the coins.
