Five years ago I inherited a small coin collection that was unarranged.  I
visted a coin dealer who sold me (1) coin size double mylar sleeves, (2)
labels, and (3) storage boxes.  The double sleeve is handy: place the coin
in one pocket and the label in the other; you can see both faces of the
coin and still read the label.  The sleeves fit neatly in the box.

Check with a good coin dealer. No sense reinventing the wheel.

I recall that University Products and probably other vendors sell coin
storage sleeves.

Good luck.

Michael
