I recently acquired a total of forty peace and Morgan silver dollars.
All are common dates. How should I store them without causing more
scratches or blemishes?

If they are already circulated, just put them in a plastic roll holder.

40 new "Air-tites" would be O.K., cost $40. For two dollars (or less)
you could get cardboard 2 by 2's. There are other options too. Kinda
depends on how nice the coins are and how much you want to spend.

If they're circulated common dates with light wear, you could store them
just about any way that's convenient, as long as they sit still while in
storage. In a plastic screw-top tube, a box, even a bag. Their value won't
likely decrease and they shouldn't get any more scratches.

They are ciculated, including statin finishes. Bought them at an auction
the other night.

Put them in an Intercept Shield album.

Go to your local coin shop and get a screw-top plastci roll holder.
But since they are already circulated, I wouldn't worry too much about
their storage unless they are very rare dates.

That's what I figured. i think the average buy value, according to the 2009
blue book is $14.00 each
i'm gioing to show them to somebody who knows how to grade them.
if i stack them in tubes is there anything i can place between the coins
to minimize wear? i don't want to use regular paper because of the acid
content.

You can get Air-Tites online for half that. I usually order from
http://www.air-tites.com/ Air-Tites are my preferred method for coin
storage, esp. for BU coins, with coin tubes primarily for circulated
coins.

***************

I've gat a bunch of decent circulated silver dollars that have been stored
in a small money bag for over 50 years and have never changed appearance.
As long as they don't get banged around, they should look about the same
fifty years from now. If only I would, too.
