Protecting your collection is essential for maintaining its worth over time. Damage, improper storage, or neglect can quickly reduce a coin’s market value.

Effective protection methods include:

• Store in quality holders – Use capsules, flips, or slabs to prevent wear.
• Control storage conditions – Keep coins in a stable, dry environment away from humidity.
• Limit handling – Always handle coins with gloves to avoid fingerprints and tarnish.
• Avoid harsh cleaning – Cleaning can scratch surfaces and lower value.
• Insure high-value items – Consider a policy that covers theft, loss, or damage.

Following these practices can help preserve both the appearance and market appeal of your coins.
