I recommend you look up coin collecting in the phone book. If that doesn't work contact appraisers and see who their sources are. All sorts of books are available for coin collectors which contain pages with pockets specifically designed for coins of all sizes for front and back display. Materials vary from plastic and cardboard to the top of the line archival materials. I don't know which archival materials suppliers carry them, but I know I've seen them in catalogs. As for the person with the pens, I don't know what "floaty pens" are, but for a simple display solution you could get a test-tube stand. They should be readily available at a chemist or a college book store. ---------------------- Vincent Lyon [log in to unmask] ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
