Coin Collecting: Storage And Maintenance
Coins are among the more popular items people collect. Finding currencies from different countries has proven to be a worthwhile pursuit for many. Still, some collectors have taken an interest in finding ancient coins. The project can be quite challenging but having an enviable display is possible. Here are some tips on how to properly store and maintain these precious coins:

Stackable trays
Coins don’t take much room. Stackable trays allow coins to be protected from dust and other elements especially when not displayed. This storage also allows coins to be carefully placed together in one place especially when kept in a special place at home.
Shadow box
Placing coins in a shadow box is also a good way to store and maintain them. This is especially suitable for those who want to be thematic with their coin collection and add other items to a frame. This option can also work for those who want to see a box full of ancient coins. However, when using a shadow box, collectors should also be careful not to damage the coins by placing them with other potentially damaging materials like acidic or dyed papers.

Glass case
This is a good option for those who have room in their homes to display their collection. Placing a few coins in a glass case is advisable especially when sorting coins according to a specific historical period. Glass cases are great for those who want to show their glorious and hard-earned collection. A glass case shields a coin from dust, moisture, and other elements as well. It also requires little maintenance.
Ancient coins are pieces of history. Displaying these artifacts require proper care and maintenance. But compared to other collectibles, coins are great items to collect as they are easier to store and show.
