They are a lighthouse product. Personally I don't like them, they look cheap. I guess they look like a wanna be slab. In the case of not getting your coin slabbed professionally I'd much prefer an Airtite (with ring) capsule if using anything more than a Saflip.

I bought a Sovereign off Eric a while back and He shipped it in one of those little slab like cases.
It looked great and is a perfect way to protect Gold or any other coins in the mail :good:
I used it to send one of our members a coin in, How's that for recycling :dance2:

Similar type of slabs were around many years ago,you could buy them already labelled for the elite Oz. coins eg, 1938 Crown,1937 Crown, 1934/35 & 1927 Florins,etc.,you don't see them around much anymore although a Coin in one pops up on Ebay UK from time to time.

Regardless of how much I like the idea of getting great coins slabbed the slabs themselves are a pain in the butt to store.  I'll put up with that annoyance for a real slab.  But putting coins in a fake slab and having to store that?  No, thanks.  I'll take a SAFLIP in a purple penny coin page any day.  And capsules?  Ugh.  They are even worse to store than slabs.

:scratch_one-s_head: hold on, trout would have a heap of shells that he's crack so all I need now is to work out the new labels :winkextra:

All that is left after a crack out IS the label all the rest is in pieces :)
