These are growing in demand. Some collectors prefer to proudly display their coins in archival folders, while others like air-tight capsules, or mylar-lined carboard. Whatever you do, do not store yours in the soft flips you frequently see in the market. They are made from PVC which decomposes over time and ruins the coin it was intended to protect. In the event you buy coins already within such a sleeve, transfer it as soon as possible to a better storage medium. You might consider acetate flips, but realize that these are hard and may scuff the coin if it is not placed and removed with care. Although they aren't airtight, they are adequate alternatives for medium priced coins that will be "left alone" for numerous a long time.
