Coin Capsule Size For 2014 1oz Britannia?

[Kman]

Basic question I know

 

But after asking a site what size coin capsule I needed for a 2014 1 oz gold Britannia they told me 39mm

 

I bought 5, they came today but are way too big.

 

I emailed the site and they apologised and offered to replace the capsules with my next order 

 

But looking at the capsules anyway I think I prefer the airtight ones, you know with the blank around it

 

So I did a search and saw these http://www.coingallery.co.uk/air-tite-ringed-capsules-37-c.asp

 

What size do I need?

 

I contacted the site and they told me 39mm but having just got 39mm capsules from somewhere else and them being too big I'm not sure if that's right (or if because they have the black border around it makes any difference)

 

What a kerfuffle just trying to get some coin capsules  

 

Any help appreciated

 

Thanks

Should be 32mm. My 2007 and 2011 are 32mm but obviously 22k. UK Lunar is 32mm and 24k so I assume 24k Brits will be too.

Those caps are lighthouse with the air-tite ring. You want to buy genuine air-titles for the best quality. I prefer them without the ring.

Thanks, where to buy yours from? why do you think two sites have told me 39mm

No idea why they told you 39mm.  Maybe becuase they thought it was for silver as they are 39mm.

 

I use direct fit without the ring.  Can see they edging etc which I prefer.  The air-tite caps will then fit into the air-tite tubes which hold 20 caps.

Maybe they thought you were asking about silver, it's 39mm for them.

Hi Murry, I have 2 of these you will need a 33mm capsule as they measure just over 32mm, The Brittannia can change between 22K and 24K

britannia should be the same as lunar so you'll need 33mm capsule with no ring or 32mm ring/foam capsule.

Airtite H32 Klacey might have some pm him

[morezone]

You guys are more accurate than me.

If using genuine air-tites, then 32mm (H32).

If using generics, then 33mm.

The coin does indeed measure over a tad over 32mm.

[morezone]

If Klacey doesn't have any H32s, I have spares. 50p each plus postage.

Ended up getting a ringed capsule from coingallery, ordered them about 2pm and they came today, very quick delivery.

 

Feels good and secure, got the 32mm. Just need 4 more coins to put in the other 4 capsules.

That's a beauty Murray, looks great in that capsule, so what's your next purchase gonna be?

[silversword]

I like that. I have some of my silver coins in the same type of capsule with the black air-tight ring, it contrasts nicely with the metal, especially so with the gold.

Probably a 1oz Gold Lunar Year of the Horse

 

Also interested in getting some sovereigns

Going all out gold then, I have the gold lunar horse, Definitely my favourite coin I own
