1982 - 1991 Silver lib capsules needed

[365DaysofSilver]

Hello all,

I’ve just got my first batch of silver libertad coins and they look amazing, they are the older style with the writing on the edges. 

The problem I’ve got is I can’t find any capsules for them anywhere, if you’ve got these coins in your stack you will know they are smaller and thicker than your average 1oz silver coin, so would be nice to have capsules that fit them tightly. 

Does anyone know where I can source these from?

Thanks in advance!

I have bought some previously from @morezoneI can't remember the size but I'm pretty sure they where a direct fit capsule and they fitted perfectly. I would reach out to morezone mate. I would imagine he's the best person to help you out 👍

I don't have any DF for older Libs.  Previously I used 38mm caps for mine.  Little too wide and a bit too shallow.  Caps do close but not all the way.

I bought a larger size on eBay along with ringed spacers that allow smaller coins to fit using the spacers..

I think the earlier Silver Libs are 34.5mm compared to 40mm for the modern ones

This type of spacer 👍

Buy 40mm capsules to fit the newer Libs & the older ones with the wee rings & “Roberts yer mowers brower”

Thanks for all the suggestions. How ever I don’t really want to use a spacer capsule as I want to be able to see the writing on the edges of the coins without getting them out. 

I think we’ve found a gap in the market, keep an eye out for me on dragons den!
