    Think 20s will come in a roll with capsules similar to kooks/koalas

    Probably the same as the kookaburras. Encapsulated and plastic shrink wrapped (I think that's what it's called).

    All indications are that Govmint intends to slab all 45K. I do have the slabbed proof and high relief coins but have no interest in trying to stack a bunch of "GEM" quality coins in big plastic boxes and at $30 each. This kills stacking this coin for me, which is a shame as I really like the looks of the bullion version.

    I looked at Ainslie website, i found contradicting comment.

    So they come in tubes of 20. But towards at the bottom...

    Is that mean the tubes is clear?

    puzzled as ever...and for something so mysterious, we jumped in pretty well :D

    I think it just means it comes in stacks of 20, each with their own capsule ? Pretty much just like the lunars or kooks.

    I don't believe they'd do this, ship 5,000 coins to the US just to ship them back.

    Besides, PCGS is just as corrupt as NGC, big orders like this get the express / blindfolded ride through grading and go directly to slabbing.

    Because its an Aust legal tender, 10% has to be made available at the ausyralian primRy market.

    If deler decide to sell some to overseas client...its up to them.

    None of these 5000 rejects crap...lol

    "Just to clarify they are individually encased bullion grade coins (with the usual 'shrink wrapped' rolls of 20, direct from the Perth Mint of the same high quality you get with a Kooka etc. We are indeed now only selling up to 20 per customer only as they are nearly all gone and we would prefer more people get a chance to own them and allows us to manage web orders and stock."

    I don't think they are trying to make money on shipping, just protect themselves and their customers from possible loss by making sure it's fully insured or at least shipped securely.

    They were happy to ship on my Fedex account, but I'm providing the insurance and assuming responsibility for any loss.

    Agree and I did not mean to imply that they were trying to make money on shipping, I see from other posts how expensive it really is to ship from Australia. What I should have said was that I would not be paying that much to ship anything, I don't want them that badly.
