How do I properly secure these coin holders after inserting a coin?
After placing your coin inside, fold the holder over and secure it with either a staple along the edge or tape. Both methods create a protective sealed pocket around your coin.
Can I write directly on these coin paper flips?

Will these fit in standard coin binder pages?
These holders are designed to fit standard 20-pocket binder pages, making them compatible with most coin collecting binder systems.
Are both sides of my coin visible when stored in these holders?
Absolutely! The clear window design allows you to view both the front and back of your coin without removing it from the holder.
What's the best way to remove a coin from these paper flips?
Carefully cut or remove the staple or tape, then gently open the fold to access your coin. Take care not to damage the coin during removal.
Can I use these holders for coins of different sizes?
These square holders work best with penny-sized coins, but you can use them for smaller coins as well. Larger coins may not fit properly or may cause bulging.
Do these paper flips protect coins from tarnishing?
These cardstock holders provide protection from handling damage and dust, but they're not airtight, so they won't prevent tarnishing like sealed plastic holders might.

Can I reuse these paper flips for different coins?
While you can reuse them, removing staples or tape may weaken the cardstock. For long-term storage of valuable coins, it's better to use a fresh holder.
What's the difference between stapling and taping these holders shut?
Stapling provides a more permanent seal that's tamper-evident, while tape allows for easier reopening but may lose adhesion over time or leave residue.
Are these suitable for valuable or rare coins?
These are ideal for circulated coins, duplicates, or coins of moderate value. For highly valuable or rare coins, consider more protective storage solutions designed specifically for premium coins.
