Well I have a heap of coins arriving and would like to put if not all in cases were does every one get them and is there a stanard size for 1oz coins. Yea I could wait and measure them but I'm impatient.
Beat me to it m8. I am also after some capsules for PM Funnelwebs, 1/10 and 1/4 Capsules They seem heaps expensive on eBay, some up to $3 per cap..
I bought a bunch of the lady who basically supplied the forum with airtites but alas she is in a better place now. Standard size of 1oz silver is usually h-29. Depending on how many you need it's probably worth your while to get them from http://www.airtites.com
I've purchased all of mine for airtites.com They are good, only thing I dont like is if you buy a lot of different sizes they send them all seperated in a box and stacked with thin piece of foam between them. If you getting a bunch of the same shouldn't matter. They also have a chart showing you standard coin sizes and what airtite you would need.
Lighthouse do good coin capsules http://www.lighthouse.us/epages/lig...th=/Shops/leuchtturm_us/Categories/US/US_2281 available from Renniks in Australia. https://renniks.com/main.aspx?pageid=31 For the various sizes pick your coin from the links http://www.lighthouse.us/epages/lig...s/leuchtturm_us/Categories/advice-on-capsules
Depending on whether you want original or Airtites for the Funnel-web. There are other selling them on ebay. Members of the forum that carries them innerpath carries mainly of the airtite capsules, tubes. Chip carries mainly Perth original capsules, some tubes for the 1 oz coins, plastics bags
The best thing in my opinion are lighthouse aluminium coin cases. S6, L6, or L12. With air-tites capsules which are better than the lighthouse caps in my opinion as the air-tites are more similar to the Perth Mint capsules. The lighthouse branded capsules have nasty edge, it protrudes. You can nicely display your collection in the above. And then put multiples that you have in red top cap tubes from air-tites. That is what I would recommend.
I get all mine of ALi Express, SOOOO much cheaper but you do need to wait on delivery. I usually buy in lots of 50 so you get free shipping. I know Ali Express is EVIL because some of the stores on there do fake coins BUT for coin supplies cheap cheap cheap.
Buy coin billion or any bullion (not legal tender) in cases from Ali express complain there fakes. Report them get money back can't legally return them as its illegal to send counterfeit stuff through the mail. Get a free case and an awesome paper weight.
I'd be worried of the coin capsules from Ali express as they may not be coin safe and may actually induce quicker tarnishing of coins rather than protecting them. They may be perfectly safe, but I wouldn't personally risk it.
I have a question. Are air-tites, with the foam ring, really secure once they are snapped shut? As in, secure enough for daily pocket carry...without popping open?
Just to double check.... For a 1 oz Krugerrand or 1 oz gold Maple Leaf, I would want the air-tites w/ black foam. Would I be ordering 32mm?
