andywoj00 Valued Member United States 441 Posts	Posted 11/30/2017 11:33 am Does anyone know if there is a 2x2 staple flip made in the US that'll hold a Silver eagle? All I see are 2.5x2.5. I want to store Morgan's and want a bit of space around the coin. My storage boxes are all 2x2. A vendor and P/N would be helpful. Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 190386 Posts	Posted 11/30/2017 11:43 am I have never seen a 2x2 that will hold one. The one I bought to fill the hole in my 7070 was in a 2.5 x 2.5.

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 11/30/2017 1:20 pm SE's are larger than Morgans or Peace dollars so they couldn't make a 2X2 for them. Report this Post to the Staff
Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 11/30/2017 1:24 pm Mox, I used the 2.5's to put all my large dollars in my "Expanded 7070" in vinyl, worked great and looks good too. The dollar size 2" won't handle SEs very well, kept breaking on me, wouldn't form a good air seal so defeats the porpoise. PS: And YES! I Cheated!

lmwstamps Valued Member United States 65 Posts	Posted 12/01/2017 12:26 am I don't think it is possible to make eagles fit in a 2 X 2 due to space limitations Report this Post to the Staff

Was hoping someone made a 2x2 with a 41mm hole...that would be perfect. Would give you a bit over 3/16" around the hole to staple. Report this Post to the Staff
andywoj00 Valued Member United States 441 Posts	Posted 12/04/2017 2:40 pm Had to do an experiment to see if it was possible. Yes, a 2.5 squared can be made into a 2x2. Here's what you end up with. Ugly, coin moves inside, etc. The hole is 43mm according to my reloading calipers so it's a bit TOO big. Guess I'll stick with the ones made for Morgans. Too much of a PITA to make this.
