  .999 gold may be "soft," but not that soft....never had any problems with storing Gold in flips.

  << <i>or, is .999 too soft for anything other than a capsule?
  
  I just want to make sure that any potential for abrasion etc. is minimized. Thanks. >>
  
  
  
  If your worried about getting them scuffed or marked then yes , those are not as protective as a capsule.24k gold is so soft it can me marked with a fingernail.My Dad once had a 24k chain link bracelet , he lost it playing golf just from the movement/energy of swinging the club , it went flying off somewhere and i guess unknown to him.

  if you want it minimized,
  then a capsule is stronger.

  OK yes, but I would use an Air-Tite for long term storage.

  Put the air tight inside the flip should be better.
