Where or how are you guys store these little gems?
I've only got two and they rattle in between my PCGS and NGC slabbed coins in the box. I used to keep them in my 2x2 box with my other Large Cents and just kept the lid off.
Yeah... no great way to store these...
This could be the solution to your problem @lkenefic. Check out this Aadapter.

Nice selection of slabs @AlanSki! What's going on here?
Tape residue from an old sticker.
The slab is some kind of acrylic - you can remove it with an alcohol swab (used when you get an injection). I don't recommend letting the alcohol pool on the surface, but dampening and then rubbing the residue off is usually safe.

I wouldn't use any chemicals on any slab. All you need is a little heat from a hair dryer and that tape residue will come right off.

What's that white film on your coin? Has your coin been puttied?

I store mine in vintage boxes.
I had this case made if I need to carry them around somewhere or need them to be stored in a watertight environment.
Picked this one up yesterday from the local BM shop. Two bucks and out the door
BTW I told him the holder was worth more than the dime.

What did they use gorilla glue.
Several of the online coin shops sell them new. If you need a case lot, Transline Supply sells them: https://www.translinesupply.com/store/login.aspx

You are more likely to damage the slab with a heat gun / hair dryer than an alcohol swab you put on your skin.

Love my old soaps, best holder ever.

Area on the surface that hasn’t toned. You can see the pull away toning near the date. I’ll get better images in a few days.
