Or buy a "flat clinch" staplers and be done with it in one step.

I’m good with what I have right now, but thanks for the suggestion

Unless my bullion is shipped in a capsule or a slab, I am not interested.
I have never liked flips or the two by twos unless it is already a beat up coin.

So do you use tubes or what?

MilesWaits

If tubes are available, yes. For instance if I get maples or a variation of Canadian silver like the predator series, I buy enough that they are sealed as 25 coins or 15 for the 1.5 ounce versions in a tube. I like them to be easily stored, easily accessible and easily sold.

Do you buy any of the more numismatic bullion like kooks, koalas?

Sorry, actually spelled Beilstein - Google it. It is a simple test if you have a copper wire and access to a Bunsen burner or propane torch.

I don’t have a propane torch or a Bunsen burner (except at school lol) is that’s out

Ever hear of a candle or even a candle lighter? A gas stove is faster. All you need to do is get the copper wire red hot. `

PS I find that most collectors are paranoid about coin storage. Make sure you wear white cotton gloves too!

Only use archive level holders for your coins it’s more expensive but it’s there’s no price on piece of mind

Kliao, I don’t think of any of my bullion as numismatic. I get it is close to spot as possible and hope it’s attractive to me, too.
And yes, I have Kooks and Koalas. And a nice series of the Gold lunar’s, first run. Like Mark.

A candle lighter might work..... my house uses electric stoves. But I don’t have any copper wire. Will a copper penny work?

I have 1 cotton glove

I'll bet if you think really hard, you'll figure out where to get some!

With all this talk about Bunsen burners, candle lighters, gas stoves, copper wiring... I'd say you'd better check that your home owners insurance has been paid and is up to date before you guys start your science projects.
