Kookaburra Square Capsule Dimension

[Danny-boy]

Hi all,

I need a quick favour, can anybody please tell me the dimensions of the early kookaburra original square capsules that they came in from the mint?

Thanks in advance.

50mm x 50mm or in old money 2ins x 2ins,they will fit just, into a Westminster type tray that holds 12 coins.

You little beauty, thanks very much MB.

No problem Danny.

They will just about fit into your 50mm lighthouse trays then I am guessing. That's lucky!

Should fit perfectly in the square trays I have my S2's in at the moment.

Ace.

Only problem is, you can't buy those trays for the smaller case, so I'll need to allocate my 2nd large case to Perth mint only. I can deal with that.

Yea that's annoying. I bought the S6 as I don't have a safe big enough for an L6 case yet. So I can only display the kooks nicely at the moment.

I will be getting an L6 at some point, otherwise those lunar coins I am getting will feel lonely stored in air tite tubes.

My safe just about fits two L6's in with the other stuff that's in there. I would like it to be bigger though, it's a bit of a pain getting stuff out.

I'll put all Perth stuff in one (when the kooks arrive) and that'll free up space for other stuff in the general one.

I'll need another 50mm tray for the square kooks though, that should look pretty cool. The 50mm tray takes 15 coins and there are only 10 years that came I'm square caps, so I'll need to buy 5 more to fill it. The other kooks with privys will almost fill a 47mm 24 space tray.

Then I need to find more Perth stuff to fill the rest of it, koalas and stock horse will be a good start.
