There was a gold coin case available at imaginaire that held 10 $20 for $20 coins. I ordered 2 & then they were sold out. I put myself on list to be notified when back in stock. Nice case! It was discussed on another thread. It was for Canadian gold coins but works perfect for the $20 for $20 series.

Sorry Arianzo, I wrote before checking your ebay link. This is just for the 2013 coins & the gold coin case was nicer. |

It was discussed on another thread. It was for Canadian gold coins but works perfect for the $20 for $20 series. Will just clarify. If not mistake, the case is for 1976 gold coins. It stores 10 coins 27mm in capsule, which make it perfect fit for 20for20 series. Disadvantage - it too long. 10 small coins could be stored in smaller box. I ordered one and put all the 20for20 in it (waiting for Santa). Btw, the fact that there is no special case, and this one contains 10 coins, caused me to think to collect the series after "Santa" @arianzo: Mint didn't offer them for purchase via website. If I remember correctly - they distributed the holders on some events. IMO, not very smart - do not offer even simple case for purchase for this series. |

I actually don't mind the bulk of the case & a nice way to display the 10 coins. It would have been nice it RCM made a case especially for this series (as well as the bird coins) but this is the best display for this series that I have found. |

You can buy the holder cards at the mint boutique for $2.
I picked up two a couple of weeks ago

I think I owe a thanks to Silveroid for informing me of the above shown case on another thread (if someone else, I apologize). Being such an old case (1976) will imaginaire come up with some more? I am new to this retailer.

So is it confirmed this is the last coin in the series?

All speculation (I believe) but with 2 $100 for $100 selling out quite quick it could spell the end. Who knows? If anyone does find out, please let us know.

So, you can buy those holders nowadays directly at the Mint but not online.
The trip will cost to me at least as 100 holders ...

Did they make these holders for other years besides 2013?

I found the case, when someone reported about "O' Canada" boxes availability. And remembered, that BiBo said, that he got the case from his friend, and the case was initially for gold coins.
