Thanks Barry. I contacted them and have ordered 10 coins. Each batch of 5 coins costs $5 for postage, so all up it cost me $110.00. I'm happy! :winkextra:

He emailed me that they're already attached to the cards, which from comments here some time ago means they're glued on. I'll wait until I get a firm indication of exactly how they're presented before committing I think.

if your talking about what I think your talking about then this is what they should look like

thinking I'll take them out of the baggies when my folders turn up..thoughts please

Fulvio · November 11, 2013, 09:59:31 AM

If they're in the bag, that would be fine. But I've seen them glued on.

purplepennyhunter · November 11, 2013, 10:03:28 AM

The RSL were advised not to glue any more on. Hence the baggies.

Interesting...

keldaw · November 12, 2013, 08:32:38 AM

all of mine are glued on and I cant see why people would worry about that unless they wanted to take it out of the plastic package and then take it off the card .. ,, kel ,,
