Title: Single Proof $1 Boxes
Post by: Goldseeker on March 09, 2016, 12:17:42 PM
I recently was able to secure the Silver $1 Proof NRL and AFL coins with COA off Ebay.

They were received earlier this week, but alas the coins were delivered in capsules only.

Does anyone on this forum have TWO single $1 Proof Coin boxes that are in good condition that will take the encapsulated coin and COA with the certificate having not to be cut or folded in any way.

I tried the RAM earlier but they only order boxes as required.

I am prepared to buy and pay postage.



Thanks In Advance

Thanks for that gnome but I prefer to have a RAM box if possible.

Thanks anyway.

Not sure where you are but I saw a bunch of empty boxes some might be RAM on the bargain table at Wynyard Coins.

Do you mean these boxes? Aren't they different sizes?

Yes, there are different ones.

The boxes above are for the 25mm dia Silver Proof Coins in a capsule.

I want boxes that will take the COA that comes with the NRL/AFL coins as well as the encapsulated coin.

I do not want to cut/fold etc the certificate to be able to place it and the coin into a box.

Bruce if you bought these from eBay member daytradermaremma he lists them all with no packaging but I have asked him the question

Actually goldseeker I don't think these coins had packaging they are just a coin included in these sets

Agreed runway, but I need to store the coins so I need the single boxes that will take an 8cm x 8 cm COA without being folded.

I purchased the coins off Ebay and they came with the foam black packaging that was in the original boxes so I have something already to hold the coin steady.

Thanks anyway but it looks like I may have found a saviour.   All things crossed.

NO wukkers, I enjoyed the hunt for a box to suit a 8x8cm COA card as I have heaps of empty $1 boxes in differing sizes and 99.99% of them weren't up to the task.
These are a little different to the standard clamshell type box most of the $1 coins come with and as a presentation concept I think they are rather nice.
Glad I could help out and I had a lot of fun doing it :)
