What do you keep your bullion in?

2x2s or 2.5x2.5s, airtites, mint packaging, capsules, flips??

I keep my bullion in a small basket on my coin table. I usually will pilfer it when I need some coin cash! -dan

If bullion for the sake of bullion; airtites stacked in coin tubes, locked up in a safe deposit vault.

My 1 OZ silver rounds are kept in tubes (20 to a tube) the larger bars 5 and 10 OZ are kept in silver bags, these are cloth bags available at Wal-Mart that are treated with something that prevents tarnish. They are meant for storing sterling silver dinnerware but work great for silver bullion. My small accumulation of "collector" bars are kept in flips so I can enjoy and handle them whenever I want. I have very little (1 Maple leaf) gold bullion other than the coins in my collection. The Maple leaf is kept in a 120 gallon aquarium in a little plastic treasure chest protected by my Oscar... Someday I want to have a whole slew of gold coins in the tank next to a sunken pirate ship! Unsafe? probably not, what thief would look in a fish tank for valuables? And since gold is a noble metal I don't have to worry about it corroding, tarnishing or anything else except maybe being nicked when the Oscar decides he wants to re-arrange the aquarium and starts moving the gravel around. Since it is really only worth the price of gold with no collector value, Who cares? I get a chance to enjoy it everyday when I feed the fish and see it sitting there in its own little "treasure chest" Who else looks at and enjoys their bullion everyday?

Airtites or mint capsules primarily...something hard to keep it from getting banged up in the case of gold, or from tarnishing in the case of silver. It may be bullion, but I don't want to make it look ugly.

Oh, and a safe deposit box too.

Original mint packages is first choice.
Airtites and capsules will be next choice.
