Many of these are very in demand nowadays. Some enthusiasts prefer to proudly showcase their coins in archival folders, while others like airtight capsules, or mylar-lined 2x2's. Whatever you choose, don't store yours in the soft flips you often see in the market. They are made from PVC which decomposes in time and ruins the coin it was intended to protect. In the event you obtain a coin already in one of these, move it as soon as possible to a better storage medium. You may consider Mylar, but realize that these are brittle and may scratch the piece if it is not inserted and taken out with care. While they aren't air-tight, they're adequate choices for moderate value coins that will untouched for many years.
This is for sure: regardless of where you decide to keep your coins, it'll always a source of never-ending pride.
