Seems these 1/10ths come in sheets.  No idea how many come on a full sheet.

[HelpingHands]

That's  a shame they are not in caps as expected however the sheet appears to have no mint marks so I'm not sure if there is much value in leaving them in the plastic.

[ChrisSilver]

That is a shame. I will definitely put mine in a capsule, any ideas what capsule will fit though?

Ther Perth Mint 1/10th Kangaroo has a smaller diameter I think.

Might be hard to find an exact sized capsule.

If you're not using a ringed capsule then I'm pretty sure Andyjack/coin gallery will have something.

Wonder why they have done this because the 1 Oz, 1/25 and 1/50 come in caps, where were they from @morezone?

Yea, may have to put them in a lighthouse capsule. Though not the nicest solution.

I need to do some research and see if air-tite make a capsule the same size, wouldn't mind a ringed one as long as the outer diameter isn't huge.

Are they 22mm? Could get a quadrum that size

[Agpanda]

If they are 18mm I have direct fit capsules from Air-tite

I also have 22mm for 1/4oz

20mm.  I've put mine into an Air-tite ringed cap.  They don't do a 20mm in A size so I've squeezed mine into a 19mm.

I think I like my little gold in little caps.  I might buy a roll of these then I'm stocked up for the next 25 years.

@HelpingHands If you buy that I may buy 1 of them off of you if that's ok.

Ideally I would like to try to buy some of these:

T30.6 20mm Foam Ring - Black Ring - http://www.air-tites.com/Air-Tite_Ring_Type_Coin_Holders_1.htm#T30

The air-tite capsules have smooth edges, like the Perth Mint capsules. The lighthouse ones have ridged edges, I don't like them much.

If anyone is planning on making an order from Air-tite, and willing to let me add a few capsules to their order, please let me know  The $16.50 shipping doesn't make much sense for just a couple of capsules.

It'll be a while before I order my Ellie yet so I probably won't get the caps for a bit.  I do wonder if they may rattle too much.

He has some foam ring options too.

They are lighthouse caps though. So the edges aren't as nice.

I am sure @morezone will agree that the air-tites are superior to lighthouse caps.

Eeeewww. Lighthouse caps.
