There are numerous way that you can store your coins and many people have developed their own storage methods. While some collectors are happy to lump all their coins into a jar or plastic bag, more serious collectors take a much milder approach, separating and labeling each coin. Unless you are planning to open a numismatic museum in your front room deciding how you are going to keep your collection is an important consideration.
In this article I have reviewed some of the most common methods noting their advantages and disadvantages. With regards to the prices I have selected the lowest possible amounts, buying in larger quantities will of course reduce prices even further.
