Lots of these are very desirable nowadays. Some investors like to proudly display their coins in archival folders, while others prefer air-tight capsules, or mylar-lined 2x2's. Whatever you choose, do not store yours in the PVC flips you often see on the market. These are comprised of polyvinyl chloride which breaks down in time and ruins the piece it was intended to protect. In the event you acquire a coin already in such a sleeve, transfer it as soon as possible to a better storage medium. You might consider acetate flips, but recognize that they are brittle and might scratch the piece if isn't inserted and taken out carefully. Although they aren't air-tight, they are reasonable alternatives for medium value coins that will untouched for many years.
This is certain: regardless of wherever you decide to keep your coins, it will always a source of never-ending pride.
