These envelopes fix that problem and that is the very problem I had.
There comes a point though when not having the goodies brush together becomes rather important due to scratching and the cheap "enamel" coming off. The envelopes fix that.
I had an afternoon where I was just putting named Pakistani Medals into the envelopes and then arranging them away by recipient's serial number. Fun soon becomes tedium which then becomes frustration.
Almost everything in the collection is fully catalogued and "arranged".
For example say a nation's entire set of awards fit into 1 uniform envelope they will be arranged Titles (by date of institution) Orders (by date and serial number if same award) Medals (by date and serial number) Badges (by date and number) and then whatever else is knocking about. Makes things very easy to find.... if you know what you're looking for!
