My brother has assorted foreign and American coins of all shapes and sizes. Is there a type of display book that can display multiple sizes. If so, where can I buy them and if not, how should he display them? They are currently just in ziploc bags and wrapped in paper. They aren't safe or in a nice display. He is only 11 so he doesn't have much money to buy display materials though.

He has a state quarters book, but he is more interested in older and more unique American coins as well as foreign coins. He is trying to collect coins of countries that now use the Euro, but the coins that were in those countires before the introduction of the Euro.

They make staple type cardboard holders with a Mylar window. The come is sizes from dimes upward to silver eagles. There will be a size, that will be close to the world coin your brother has. These 2x2 holders fit into a plastic page that will hold 20 of them. The pages are punched to be put into a common 3 ring binder. All these items are available from a coin dealer. Be advise that the 2x2 holders are usually sold in groups of 100 of the same size and cost around $5, usually less. To get more of an idea of what is available is you can go to www.brooklyngallery.com they are a large supply dealer and have good prices. They also have a catalog for $1.50.
