advice on displaying capsuled coins




I have this idea for displaying my capsuled coins.Any advice or comments would be appreciated.
I want to buy a binder and then some pages designed for slabbed coins.I'm thinking that lighthouse may be a good choice because I understand that some of their pages for slabs have a snap so it is secure in the pocket.Does anyone do this with their coins in capsules?and if so how did it work out?
Thanks again for any input.

    Hi image

    Your plan is nearly the same as the way I store things. PCGS slabs fit into archival postcard sleeves perfectly. I put the slab in with the opening of the sleeve at the bottom. The sleeve with the slab goes into a 4 pocket archival postcard page. The "upside" down sleeve prevents the slabbed coins from falling out of the pages in the binder - this is an all important step!
    Its a great system that ca be modified to hold cards for each coin to note cost etc. I hope this works for you - works for me!

    Best wishes always,
    Eric

    I've also tried the Eagle Certified Coin pages and found that over the long haul they rubbed the holders to the point some of them needed to be reholdered. Plus I spent tons of time polishing out the rubs.

    After that the Eagles went into the trash.
