Many of these are quite popular these days. Some investors like to proudly showcase their coins in archival folders, while others like air-tight capsules, or mylar-lined carboard. Whatever you do, don't store yours in the PVC flips you often see on the marketplace. These are made from polyvinyl chloride which decomposes in time and ruins the piece it was to preserve. Should you obtain coins already in one of these, move it as quickly as possible to a better storage medium. You may consider Mylar, but understand that these are brittle and might scratch the coin if isn't inserted and taken out with care. Although they are not airtight, they are choices for medium value coins that will be "left alone" for many years.
One thing is for sure: regardless of how you decide to keep your coins, it'll forever a source of never-ending pride.
