On my last Wizard order I saw a roll box for small dollars.
Of course I had to have one of these.

Because I have a lot of proof and satin small dollars I
did not know what to do with. And of course Canada large
cents fit into the same tubes. I have been looking for
compact ways to store some of my coins.

Today there was some packs of SBA's I added to my purchase,
so I will add them to my mini monster box.

I thought it would be nice to show others a storage option.

I thought about this after I made this thread.

What I find really interesting is the size difference.
From my Ike/Large dollar box to the small dollar box.

Both will hold 500 coins ($500 face)

Interesting. I'm sure I could do the math but what's the weight difference?

The Ike box, if I remember right is 27 pounds.

I only have 100 small dollars so far ...so don't have
a weight for it yet.

The small dollars weight 8.1 grams so 500 of them would be 4050 grams or just under 9 pounds plus whatever the box and tubes weigh.

I like both boxes. Of course, I like one just a wee bit more.
