No,no,no on vinyl, it breaks down to form a scum on coins and chips. The action of corrosion is from the breakdown product HCl or hydrochloric acid
By the way, PVC (polyvinyl-chloride) is vinyl.
I believe polypropylene, polyethylene, polyester (mylar), and a couple others are okay for archival chip and coin storage.
Make sure any coin holders you buy state which kind of material it is, otherwise it's probably vinyl (PVC).
