jimineez Valued Member United States 287 Posts	Posted 11/17/2011 4:22 pm I just bought a 1 kilo .999 silver Kookaburra coin and the mint capsule on it is cracked....anybody have a replacement they will part with or know where I can find one? It has the same dimensions as my kilo koala coin, so other Australian 1 kilo capsules should fit it too. Thanksfully the coin is A-OK Anyone? Thanks! UPDATE: Willing to trade these out for 1oz bullion...check the trade forum for my new post. Edited by jimineez 11/17/2011 10:59 pm Report this Post to the Staff

You can contact the Perth Mint and ask for one, but they will probably not give you one. You could try your luck and try one of Chinas knockoffs on ebay, I can't guarantee that it will fit. http://www.ebay.com/itm/260750603098?ru=http://www.ebay.com:80/sch/i.html%3F_from=R40&_trksid=p3984.m570.l1313&_nkw=260750603098&_sacat=See-All-Categories&_fvi=1&_rdc=1 http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Origin-...em3a691bc714 http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Coin-ho...em27bf8806fd Report this Post to the Staff
jimineez Valued Member United States 287 Posts	Posted 11/18/2011 09:22 am thanks for the links, 100mm should be right, but they don't say those fit the Aus. coins, just pandas... Anyone know if they are exactly the same? Also, don't these get TPG graded sometimes? if so, I thought I might get an unused capsule that way...but I guess thoses would all be at NGC!

jimineez Valued Member United States 287 Posts	Posted 11/24/2011 8:57 pm Makes sense about the counterfeit idea, of course it would be easier to counterfeit the capsule than the coin! Regardless, I just made a nice trade for both of my Perth kilo's, so I am happy and dont have to deal with it anyway. Thanks for the help...! Report this Post to the Staff
