 United Kingdom 2016 Gold Lunar Year of the Monkey 1oz Gold Coin - Comes in capsule? Thanks!

It's not often you see the title of a thread that is far longer than the body of text it contains!

I've fixed it.  I assume Google translate was involved.

As far as I know they come in a tube of 10 so no capsule.

I have tied up your title Jason so it is easier for members to see.

They don't ship in a capsule from the mint. But if you buy from somewhere like Atkinsons you can get them to throw in a lighthouse capsule for free.

If you decide to buy a capsule separately I would try to get an air-tite brand one, as in my opinion they are better as they are smooth around the edges, they are similar to the original perth mint capsules. The lighthouse cases have a grove in them.

Still looks too long and a bit garbled to me, clear cache?

I think @HelpingHands and my edits clashed. 

[sovereignsteve]

Ah yes, a lot better

[Jonson]

Thanks!

If so, how is this gold coin keeps on accidental damage? Costs a lot of pounds - at least they should keep it like the Chinese - nylon plastic cover!

l like the coins in capsules original from the mint !

If you look at the coin details on coininvest you can see which come in capsules and which come in a plastic bag (sachet).

From Bairds they come in a sealed card, as have all the Lunar so far.

This is how the kangaroo coins come from Perth Mint. One of my favourite gold coins, design changes each year which is nice.

The price is also due to the fact that these coins are Capital Gains Tax free in the UK.

If you buy directly from the Royal Mint it comes carded in a blister pack, if you buy if from Bairds (who are usually the cheapest anyway) it comes in their own branded carded blister pack.  As far as I know everywhere else either sells the coin loose or if it is in a capsule they have just stuck it in a generic one.

Sorry I thought you meant the bullion coin.
