Which capsules for sovereign?

[PolarPanda]

Hi all, 

I bought today my first full sovereign (BU) coin and i would like to put them in a nice capsule. I see that the capsules that are being used to put them in are different comparing to the once from silver coins. Can anyone tell me which capsules are nice for these and maybe also where they are sold for a good price? 

Thank you!

I have no clue how it comes, but i see that my topic has been published 2 times... Maybe a moderator can remove the second one? Sorry!

Hi, I have just purchased some from "CoinGallery" They are  capsules with a 22mm "airtite" insert black ring.

I paid £5.70 for 10 delivered.

Hope this helps.

22.5 mm capsules are best. 

I actually have 8 spare ones if you wanted.

Thank you both for the reactions. @BackyardBullion. Yes i'm interested! Can you sent me a message with the price? Only issue maybe is that they have to be sent to Belgium... Please let me know and thank you in advance!

Ooh can I have 3 please if there are any left @BackyardBullion?

@PolarPanda Thank you for the thread and congratulations on your first sovereign purchase! I hope you'll be very happy with it, and may it be the start of many like with me (well that's the plan anyway lol, but I have a few for now, and love them ). I made a sov purchase yesterday from here - another 2010 (or two ) to add to its sister from @Danny-boy. I have a 2010 and some 2017s in hand so far - I love them all Oh and a family heirloom 1888 - how could I forget her?!!

Thank you my friend  I also hope it will be the start of a nice collection!  

Concerning the capsules, i only asked @BackyardBullion for 2. So he will have some left to sell to you...

Thanks a lot Polar!

With postage I would say it might be good for you to get more than 2 'just in case'. Once you have your first sov you 'might' want more in the future when funds allow you to save more wealth!

Also which year did you get? Something very special I am guessing as you won't reveal!

I thought BB was selling the RM capsules for the sovereign, but i was wrong. So he still has all 8 for you if you want! It's cheaper for me to buy those normal capsules here in Belgium.  

Haha no nothing special i just bought the BU sovereign 2017... Thank you, now i feel stupid

The 2017 is a lovely first coin in my opinion, I bought the same and that's when I fell in love - great choice to start my friend!!!

That sounds better haha!  I had to buy my first sovereign also after ordering the Britannia 2017 1/4 gold proof or peoples here would kill me...

Nah don't listen to them/me - do your research but if it's value for you just buy what you like! I'm not a fan myself but we're all friends here and want each other's coins to do well - like Numi says this one could well be a big surprise hit in years to come I usually buy to protect my family, and was into bullion gold Brits at first (until the funds quickly ran out that way lol) so when I found the Sovs it was perfect for me to put away as much as I can in (imho) the best way possible when I can save up some money.

I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the 2017 Sov - I think it's stunning, I think you've hit the jackpot on your first Sov

Evening PP.

If you want RM capsules you'll have to be patient. They do come along, sometimes here or eBay, but patience is the key unless you want to pay over the odds.

I can usually get them for around £3 each but I don't mind waiting. The standard lighthouse capsules are fine for the moment or even flips just to keep them clean and scratch free.

I have 22mm direct fit from airtites

Just pm an address, and I can send some

[PolarPanda]

@Roy I know. I saw a couple of them on Ebay now for £18... Ppfff... 

@Agpanda: I've sent you a message.
