Simplest way to display collection
In Response To: Collecting Supplies ()

Try the 30-pocket plastic pages made for small coin holders. Standard size chips fit in the pockets without need for any other cardboard or plastic holder. You can get 50% more chips per page so your binder thickness doesn't grow as fast as you expand your collection. I have had several thousand chips stored this way for 10+ years.

Shown below is a page from my Fractional Chip collection to show what it looks like. Buy Cowan brand; they are a little more expensive but thicker plastic and more durable. Keep your binders stored flat, not standing with the spine upright as the weight of the pages will eventually cause the ring-holes to fail.

These are a little hard to find, and some late production had smaller than normal pockets, so try one page before you buy hundreds from a supplier.
