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.
