I bought some coin holder sheets on trademe from someone in dunedin with the idea of putting tokens, badges and buttons in, it looked great...but then picked up the ring binder the wrong way and they all fell out, now I have seen some years ago where they had a little flap to stop it falling out.
Have to make do with clear tape but doesn't look very good.
Still trying to think of good display options that don't take up room

Thanks. That's what I need to get. I'm not wanting to display purely to keep the best in something. The rest can just go in a jar. My other half bit sick of looking at them all at end of table. Cheers
