Too expensive for me.  I'm settling for a 5oz instead.  This will be my 2nd 5oz coin.  The other being the High Relief Koala which I am waiting on.

The HR silver coins are awesome, they are my favourite type of coins.

[Pipers]

I'm on my stacking phase now till the end of the year, well until the new Lunars come out.

 

20 Philharmonics.

I have just ordered 50 of the 40.8mm tubes and 50 of the 39mm tubes these are internal measurements. These are for ASE's and slightly smaller bullion coins.

 

They are to go with my monster boxes!!!!

Presumably cheaper than official mint tubes? Where from?

[Keithoil]

YES from USA works out at just under £1 a piece.

[Danny-boy]

Atkinsons sell some for £1.50 free postage if you want them quickly.

I bought two, ended up getting them for free due to postage issues, mine are still empty too.

Just can't bring myself to let coins touch together!!!

[Keithoil]

I too do not want my coins to touch so was thing of something like these, as an insert.

 

 

[Danny-boy]

Or you could just cut bits of paper?

[ChrisSilver]

Or you could just buy airtite a and airtite tubes

[Keithoil]

Yes I am trying to keep the price down, I like the airtites with the tubes but not sure if they would fit in a monster box.

 

Don't want to cut out paper would take me about 18 months to do them all. Tried to find 40mm paper punch on the net but no luck yet.

 

I will find a suitable solution.

Good point, had forgotten abou them. Cheers both of you.

[a_a]

Yeah I was gonna ask what people do, my idea was to buy cheap bullion by the full tube and basically never touch them, and put the keepers in capsules. It would be nice to put them all in capsules and then in a tube but it takes up twice as much space. Although it would keep them all minty fresh. But the bullion stuff is just £ per oz so I don't mind. But then maybe in 20 years a fresh 2013 Libertad might be sought after. Argh!

 

My non-tube coins are all in the little plastic bags atm, but I only have about 6 separate coins so it's not such a problem right now. I need to order some capsules really. Anyone know a good place for ordering a few of one kind and a few of another? What size would I need for the canadian 1.5oz wildlife ones?

You can get 7 tubes on each side of the ASE monster box if you lay the on their side.

[watchesandwhisky]

LOL I'm going to have to stop because I'm nearly flat out broke now

 

Just wanted to get what I could at the old level spot price, Im feeling guilty now though i won some silver well under spot from a charity auction where 100% goes to a hospice not all looks legit, so I think I will weigh up the genuine and make sure i top it up to market value for them.
