    Hi Everyone,

    I've been collecting silver coins for just under 2 months and the photo below shows what I have got so far.

    Couple of questions:

    Can you buy coin capsules for the rectangles' such as the Englehards?
    Why does the Perth Mint only seem to sell 1/2 Koala's via it's Bullion Trading scheme?
    Why will they only send Bullion purchases to a street address when they are happy to send normal purchases to a PO Box?

    Lots of great info on this forum.

    Thanks

    Welcome and nice little collection you have built.

    Love the obama coin LOL.

    Regarding your questions..

    Can you buy coin capsules for the rectangles' such as the Englehards?

    You can purchase these on ebay or via coin supply stores, but make sure you order the right size as most of them are for gold 1oz bars I have found.

    Thanks for the "welcomes" and info. I may not be able to keep up the current stacking pace. Depends on the budget controller :)

    Try looking at www.vernoncoincenter.com. I've found them to have some of the best bulk pricing on Airtite brand capsules.

    Welcome DU808. Great looking start to the stack!

    The Obama coin made me laugh though. Now you need a Satan coin and a Hitler coin to complete the set and you're gtg!

    :)
