I think you will be fine, as long as you keep the problem coins separate and away from good coins, you will be good. I also use saflips and it's been over 28 year with no issues. The saflips themselves may age and crack and need replacing and some coins will tone though.

Wonderful coin, congrats!

I watched it each week it was new and enjoyed it for what it was. It not much different then what you find on PBS.
-
Top coin, it looks fine, just a hard deposit. The second coin, the photos are a bit blurry/bad to even tell.
-
Seems a bit right to me. I've bought coins that say one weight and is off just a bit when it arrives and weighed with my scale.

Wonderful addition.

What's your coin budget sweet spot per coin?
Kali replied to Nerosmyfavorite68's topic in Roman Empire
On average, $50-$100. Second average is $100-$200, but it has to be something I really want. Anything beyond the $300 threshold requires some hard thought. -
^Just noticing your icon, I love it!🤣
