Yes, a good high-resolution photograph:

I like capital holders for sets once I have completed them, but they're impossible to work out of. They're not like albums where you can easily add a new coin, it's a process to unscrew the holder and add in a new coin.

 

Nice sets everyone!

Thanks. One of these days I'll take the time to open it and straighten all of the coins back up :blush::)

I must be the contrarian – have never liked Capital holders. The looked clumsy and dull in the 1960s and look the same today. Some of the other options show off the coins much better, in my opinion.

Yes, I agree with MunkyMan95. Capital Plastic holders really only work with complete sets or virtually complete sets. Taking them apart is a pain.

 

I used custom made, single opening Capital Plastic holders for all of my good coins before slabbing came along. They worked great for the that, but I always had trouble with rattles with the "off the shelf" multicoin holders. There were also some or many coins that would not fit or stay in the holes properly for me.
