I was about to take a short bus ride down to the local shop last week, I suddenly noticed that the dollar coin I had for the fare was a First Fleet, aboriginal art kangaroo. So I walked.

my ladies wallet has an extra zip section inside the coin section
so i pop the spaecial ones in there, until i run out of other money and be stoopid and spend it!

i can recommend trend bags for the ladies wallets, great range available for the descerning customer ......

i am sure you'd still look just  as macho  ha ha

Not realy, i bought a heap of the saflips with a plan to transfer ALL my collections into them.
Technicaly they are perfect but astheticaly they are dreadfull (just my taste) so I have a heap of these doing nothing.
I picked up 11 poppy coins from a boozer at Christmas Creek and without the saflips they would of got banged up in my pocket.
It is NO effort whatsoever to carry half a dozen of these in my wallet and they are amazing at protecting "Finds" untill I get home. :dance2:

Do you fold them before you put them in your wallet?

Thats a good idea. I figured if they went in the note section they may 'spring open' a bit and make the wallet fat.

I used to have one of those "clamshell" mobile phones. You know, the ones you can flip open like a "Star Trek" communicator. It was great for popping a coin into, especially if it went into a coin flip or small ziploc bag first... provided nobody actually called me and I forgot the coin was in there.

Alas, I had to upgrade the phone last year. These modern "smart-phones" they talk you into buying these days might be great for surfing the Net, but they ain't so good for storing coins in.
