Does anyone know what size tube these will fit in? It says they are 40mm but mine won't fit in the tubes that my silver Eagles fit in...

I also just took the tops from 2 ASE airtites and taped them together along the edge, it doesn't look bad and fits the coin alright.

^ the mint tubes? or the square ones? Maybe its operator error on my part but I tried putting them in both mint tubes and regular cheap plastic eagle tubes and they got stuck. I had to break open the plastic one just to get one of the privateer rounds out of it.

Came in a email-
Last week of Production!
The 2 oz Ultra High Relief Privateer Silver Round is one of the most popular new items to be released in a long time. So popular in fact, that Elemetal has decided to halt production and move on to a second round in the series. For all who haven't added this round to their stack we have decided to offer FREE SHIPPING for every order that includes a 2 oz Ultra High Relief Privateer. Don't be shy bucko, yer chance to fill your treasure chest with this booty will soon be gone!
And since I cannot post links-
Look on You Tube titled- Privateer Capsule Found, and New Privateer Round Coming Soon!!

So is this going to be like a one-per-year sort of thing? Is that usually how it works?

Looks like the second coin is soon and the third is in the works. Maybe up to five in the series.
2 Ounce Ultra High Relief Answers (Privateer and More) (self.Silverbugs) submitted 23 hours ago by ProvidentJoeMerrick
There have been many questions about the two ounce high reliefs and I hope I can answer all your questions in this thread. Q. Is Elemetal Mint making any more P1s? A. No more orders are being taken for P1s, but the mint is still making P1s to fill dealer orders that were taken on Friday 06/12 (the last day the mint accepted dealer orders).
Q. Will Provident have any more P1s than what is in stock here and here? A. No. Once our stock is gone, that's it. No more.
Q. Will other dealers have P1s longer than Provident? A. I'm sure some will. I tried to ensure we'd have at least some available for when P2 came out by placing an order on Friday, but obviously it's an estimate and so I could be off. We thought about placing a large order, but decided that we just want to get to P2 and be well stocked there so we don't have the delays we had with P1.
Q. What is the mintage? A. I haven't done the tally yet, but the total mintage is less than 75k. I'll release the exact number soon.
Q. How many different Privateer issues will there be in the series? A. No definite number of issues in the series yet. We're in the final stages of P2. We're in the early design stages of P3. I am personally hoping to get to at least P5, but no promises; a lot of this series depends on y'alls demand for it. If you hate P2 and P3, that might be it. If you love both, we will likely make a final decision on the number of issues at that time. It's too early with this product (because it's a new product, not just a new design) to make a decision now.
Q. When is P2 coming out? A. July
Q. What is P2 gonna depict? A. I'll leak that information here a few days before its release.
Q. Is there a capsule to fit Privateers? A. We designed it and are hoping for delivery by the end of this week (06/19).
Q. Any other subject matter besides Privateers for 2 ounce UHR? A. Yes. As a matter of fact, one will be released within the next 10 days. Likely others after that. I'll post a photo of it soon. Maybe Wednesday. Not sure.
TLDR: I tried to answer all the questions I've seen about 2 ounce UHRs in this post. If you have any other questions, post away and I'll do my best to answer.

Are the capsules available anywhere in Canada or just through provident?
I'm looking forward to the second one.

Well seems like it should be soon! Anyone know of any place to get an update on some of the stuff Ryan mentioned?

From what I've seen, no new info on P2. They're busy selling the Grand Canyon High Relief. Which is actually the Glen Canyon apparently. Scrap that coin or run with it? There is capsules available but I read they're rattlers.

I asked provident a few days ago and they said they had not even completed the dies yet. They said July is still a "possibility", so I imagine it will be late July early August before we see anything.

I bought two of the capsules for my privateers and they fit rather nicely. I was satisfied.

It looks like they are running low on privateers... the price went up today despite the fact that silver went down.
