Can you recommend an album for coins?
![[Deleted User]](https://wc.vanillicon.com/c928a3070142e36e101e8ae66688b50d_100.png)
Yes I have done research here but I find it confusing and a waste of time so I will get to the point.
Is there an album type I can buy that will hold random size coins safely in pages?
What is it and where should I buy it.
Thank you.

Not sure if any of these (pages and wallets) would fit what you are asking about. Or are you specifically wanting an album like dansco, Whitman...

Well, I started out with the old cardboard Whitman albums where one could only see the obverse and then graduated to Dansco albums for the different collections.
As for random coins, I house them in binder after popping them into a 2x2 flip and inserting into the album pages seen in the below link and

Cowans pages of 20 in 2x2.
You say random coins. You might have to be more specific. You mean something like this:

Notebook pages for 2x2 cardboard/mylar holders. Then I put these in a regular 3-ring binder from the office supply store. It is also handy to have some 2.5x2.5 holders and pages for the occasional large coin.
As recommended above, for random size coins, 2x2's, then placed in the plastic pages shown above is the best method. For series, Dansco or Whitman. Cheers, RickO
Danscos are pretty but the plastic inserts can scuff/scratch the high points on your coins, as you
slide them in and out.
As stated above, your best bet will be a 20 pocket page. Once the collection is less random, then pursuing a denomination or series specific album will be a good route to go.

I put them in 2x 2 flips (while in the capsules) and put them in PCGS boxes - they fit perfect in the slips and easy to store, easy to get out and evaluate
