How do you store your NGC no line fatties?

Suddenly I have more old NGC holders than I know what to do with, and they won't fit into the binder pages that I use to organize modern slabs.

    I've gotten a few of the boxes NEN gives away and just store them in those.

    The NGC boxes work quite well.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

    I agree.
    I collect Capped Bust series by variety in PCGS AU/MS grades.

    While not an NGC No Line Fatty... I have a few of the older small ANA slabs that aren't sized right for any box I have so I end up wrapping them in bubblewrap image

    turn it sideways and longways then store them in slab boxes. That's how I put all my NGC holders in PCGS slab boxes 'cuz they're too tall.

    I put them in the red intercept double row boxes.

    I went through my silver dollars today and noticed that I no longer sort them by date/mm.

    I now sort the Morgan/Peace silver dollars by PCGS or NGC and then the generation of slab.

    For example

    12 PCGS rattler
    8 PCGS 2.0 (no PCGS on label - double shell construction)
    2 PCGS 2.5 (with PCGS on label - serrated paper left and right side - double shell construction)
    7 PCGS 3.0 (doily - serrated paper edge left and right side - double shell construction)
    2 PCGS 3.5 (with PCGS on label - smooth paper edge left and right side - rounded corners - double shell construction)
    10 PCGS 4.0 earlier OGH
    8 PCGS 5.0 later OGH
    5 PCGS 6.0 and after (all blue varieties)
    3 PCGS 9.0 (Regency slabs - in a separate box)

    It seems that based on my informal sampling that the PCGS 2.5 and PCGS 3.5 are the rarest ones followed by the Regency slab. The doily, however, will be the most popular one.

    "Carefully" Seriously, old fattie holders can tone the coin inside; sometimes NOT very pretty. Think about reholdering them. If they are eally nice, you might get a * or + on some.

    Nothing wrong with some old fattie toning image

    Question is....Will it turn for the worst? Should it be sent in for a reholder?
