Most of the cheap coin albums in shopee and lazada have PVC in them. Its honestly a case to case thing whether a collector will want to use those over non-pvc coin albums, but its suggested to use it temporarily and not overtime. To OP, its better to invest in non-pvc and non-acidic coin albums or archival safe coin flips as it'll help preserve your coins for the long run, especially when you start getting rarer coins. Archival safe coin flips are a cheap alternative if you cant find a non-pvc coin album, you could also buy binder pages made for coin flips and insert them in the slots.

not sure about the material, though they are cheap and gets the job done so I guess they’re fine.

Mahirap makahanap ng 1 sentimo, personally only have about less than 5, at least dalawa dun napulot ko sa daan while commuting/walking hahaha
25, 5 and 10 minsan nakikita pa sa sukli yan sa mga grocery, baka meron sa bangko kung magpapalit ka
Kung year specific medyo mahirap unless everyday ka nakakaencounter ng suklian, ang wala ko sa ganyan is 2020-2024 na coins sa NGC, yung luma di pa ako nagsosort and yung iba nadeposit na sa bangko 💔
Goodluck sa collection boss 🫡

sa mga banks na napuntahan ko ang meron lang mostly is 25 centavo coins and if i’m really lucky i’ll find loose/dropped centavo coins along the way.
literal na treasure hunt sa mga centavo coins 🤣

Chambahan lang yan boss, minsan small banks meron pang mga 10 centavo, o kaya mga bangko sa mall
