Best Way to Store and Preserve Mexican Coins?

[Storegro]

I recently inherited a collection of Mexican coins, and I want to make sure they stay in good condition. Some are pretty old, and I’ve heard that improper storage can cause damage. What’s the best way to store them to avoid tarnishing or wear? Also, is it ever okay to clean them, or does that hurt their value?

Cleaning coins can actually lower their value, so it’s usually best to leave them as they are. Even wiping them with a cloth can leave tiny scratches that reduce their grade. If you want to check their value before handling them too much, https://coinstrail.com/catalog/mexico is a good place to start. They list coin prices based on condition, so you can see how even minor wear affects their worth. For storage, acid-free holders, coin flips, or airtight capsules work best. Avoid PVC-based plastic, as it can cause chemical reactions over time. If your coins are silver, keeping them in a dry, cool place with silica gel packets can help prevent tarnishing. If they’re valuable, consider professional grading to preserve their condition and market value.
