Bitcoin Forum

    I wanted to create a thread for everyone to be able to goto for reference on where to purchase items to safely store
any collectable item...from magazines, cards, coins etc etc.

   Please share what you would recommend and also places to have them graded and encapsulated.

   Thanks all!!

Res

onfireguy is great for coin capsules and tubes.  They sell on eBay, Amazon and their own site. 

One of the coolest ways to display your items: https://www.lighthouse.us/magic-frame.html

My favorite ive found so far for graded coins https://www.coinsupplyexpress.com/ultimate-coin-slab-carrying-case.html?feed=Froogle

I am more for the display types vs the storage types. Tends to be more pricey though. I like those that mitchell showed - might have to look into those. could put shelves in the office and line em up.

Those are sweet! I use these since they take less space and hold most graded coins well (except anacs a bit lol)... :P

Also, for Polymerbit test sheets (A5 sized) these fit almost perfectly. ;)

I do like some of the stuff from BCW - used to use them when I collected sports cards - I did recently pick up a currency album from them https://www.bcwsupplies.com/currency-album-black-10-pages

Good info. I made a similar thread about what I use here: https://coin.community/t/storage-displaying-your-collection/246

I was asked to link the cases being worked on to hold the dual coldkey halving editions. You can see the progress here and request to be on the second batch if you are not already on the list for the first or second batch currently.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5262912.0


also for single card physical collectibles here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5270540.0

I have verified they do fit:

Ballet (of course)
Coldkey
Coldkite
WEUKID cards (generic cards with name and public address) more used for sharing your pub address as a QR code on a credit card sized card
CS1 and CS2 stamps


I have verified that they do not fit:

LYNX wallets (they are about 3/32" too long)

This is a cool thread I'm surprised I have not seen it before.  When it comes to coin capsules/bar cases etc I am a huge fan of this company.  I think that they make the best quality capsules and their customer service is just awesome, I've bought from them many times- https://air-tites.com/

As for a storage box, I bought a couple of these.  If you've got a lot of random coins, this is a really cool storage container/cabinet deal- https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003P0XRH0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Edit: These are nice magazine/large paper note holders- https://www.amazon.com/BCW-1-MAG-Thick-Magazine-Bags-Thick/dp/B003WXT2NS/ref=sr_1_2?crid=23ZH0914B83YY&dchild=1&keywords=magazine+sleeve+protectors&qid=1626366745&sprefix=magazine+sleeve%2Caps%2C215&sr=8-2

I did not even think of these things - I have 2 similar units just different drawer layout - that are not being used. I prefer to display but these do look to be good for storage.

Yeah there are a lot of different options when it comes to drawer design on these things.  I personally liked this one the best since it gives you both some smaller drawers and larger drawers which is handy for slabs and things of that nature.  You can also buy a label printer and make labels for each drawer.

I think I may have an extra (brand new) one of these laying around if anyone in the US is looking for one that is cheap.  I think it would simply be too costly to ship overseas.  


Edit: Here's a cool and very affordable glass display cabinet I've been considering myself- https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/detolf-glass-door-cabinet-black-brown-10119206/

now those I like.

Since Ultrapro discontinued making their hard plastic album pages that fit graded cards I have been on the lookout for a replacement. I recently found these and they're perfect, they have PSA and BGS compatible versions too.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082LSBR4H

ANACS no longer grades cryptocurrency coins/rounds/tokens
PCGS now grades cryptocurrency coins/rounds/tokens (limited at the moment to Casascius and Lealana)

And for coin holders, On Fire Guy is a great seller.
They are on ebay and have their own site:
https://www.onfireguy.com/

I have always liked the wooden coin holders. They look incredible on those special items. They also come in different designs, for coin holders or slabs.

By the way, does anybody know of display boxes for larger objects like the Doge Car? All the vinyl boxes I've seen on Amazon look cheap and fragile. I'm looking for something more, "museum-like".

Here is a good example.
I know they make similar boxes for other collectibles.

I agree. I buy from the On Fire Guy and they are great.

we have these on cryptocloaks.com as well now
