What do you keep your slabs in?

I found this box at a yard sell, and it holds slabs pretty well. I like it

DennisH · October 14, 2008 1:16PM

Deluxe (stickers & glue removed) PCGS plastic boxes.

ArizonaJack · October 14, 2008 1:26PM

A big heavy, heavy, heavy large safe

NHSBaseball · October 14, 2008 1:29PM

Is that a sewing or knitting box? Not a bad idea...

Looks like an old jewelry box. I have a couple. I tend to like the wood ones better. Old silverware boxes are good too.

With any old box, I put in a shiny penny inside to see if the glue might tarnish the metal. If it does, it might not be so good for long term coin storage. The raw penny gives fair warning before anything in a slab might be changed.

You beat me to it.

Same here.

A safe that took me a whole day with a winch and large diameter PVC pipes to roll it in on.

In Intercept Shield slab boxes - stored, of course, in a large heavy safe.

NGC box.

Yeah, I said it.

DwaineO · October 14, 2008 9:30PM

Intercept shield holders and then in SDB, SDB not deep enough for the box. At home PCGS go in PCGS boxes since I have them and NGC and other slabs go in NGC boxes.

I like the red, double row Intercept Shield boxes. I started seeing some toning occuring on some of the coins I had in the PCGS blue boxes, plus they fill up too fast.

Intercept Shield double uppers for me.

Here's a neat one from over on the BST

One of these.... (Mine has the trays for slabs)

and one of these...

It's a secret!

Goldbully · October 14, 2008 10:45PM

Mine is 10" x 10" x 24"

lkeigwin · October 14, 2008 10:54PM

I keep slab collections in Eagle albums (wheaties and peace dollars) for easy viewing. Miscellaneous slabs and raw coins I keep in Intercept boxes. All of this I keep in a big, heavy, bolted-to-the-floor safe.

In the next room I keep my rotweiller, glock, and shotgun.

lasvegasteddy · October 14, 2008 10:55PM

i don't have enough to worry about this yet so just a pcgs blue box less then half filled hides quite easy

Thieves -- given enough time -- will find them, guaranteed. Been there.

We could hijack this thread and tell burglary stories...complete this sentence:

"When my coins were stolen..."

Yeah Tom. I remember seeing that nice hutch before! Tres bien!

Same here with two exceptions. Mines not quite that big and there ain't no one at my bank that looks like she does

I use these "Team Bags" and boxes (lid not shown) from the local sports card shop. 56 slabs per box. Only about 5% of my collection is comprised of slabbed coins. My slabs are not kept in a safe deposit box. It's a reverse situation of most. My slabbed coins are my least expensive coins.

SDB 1: PCGS Blue boxes

SDB 2: Intercept Shield 2-row box

Aegis3 · October 15, 2008 10:45AM

Trashcan.

JCMhouston · October 15, 2008 10:58AM

Eagle albums for the two British sets I am building, Eagle 24 slab boxes for the others.

fc · October 15, 2008 11:00AM

i have a SDB but i am not using it for my five slabbed coins at the moment.

they are in a plastic grocery bag in a shoe box with a bunch of used
receipts from the post office due to shipping items.

you can tell i care. a lot.

ColonialCoinUnion · October 15, 2008 11:33AM

I store the coins in PCGS boxes in neat rows in the vault by the same categories in which they are listed on our website. I don't use the lids though - I like to know which boxes are full and which ones are empty at a glance.

jmj3esq · October 15, 2008 11:46AM

I use Eagle albums. They display very nicely.

golfer72 · October 17, 2008 10:04AM

If anyone at my bank lookled like her I would probably check my SDB a lot more often

JungleFever · October 17, 2008 10:39AM

Woo hoo, I want that. Where can I get one of these? Did you make that or have someone make it for you? I call it perfect!
