Mila_cent Pillar of the Community United States 1767 Posts	Posted 04/14/2007 01:27 am I have the Australian Lunar Horse. I want to replace the capsule it came with. The coin moves a bit in the capsule. I want a direct-fit air-tite holder without the ring. What is the coin size? and What capsule size I need? Thanks, mila_ Report this Post to the Staff

Snooba Pillar of the Community Australia 1360 Posts	Posted 04/14/2007 02:45 am I believe that the lunar coins (like the kookaburras and kangaroos) are 40.60mm in diameter. You would probably have to get a 41mm direct fit capsule. Hope this helps! Edited by Snooba 04/14/2007 02:46 am Report this Post to the Staff
Mila_cent Pillar of the Community United States 1767 Posts	Posted 04/14/2007 11:58 pm Thank you, Snooba Also, my way of measureing, I compared it with a Morgan and the Lunar was a tad bit larger. So the Morgan is 40mm? mila_ Report this Post to the Staff
crystalk64 Pillar Of The Community 3147 Posts	Posted 04/15/2007 5:33 pm The Morgan dollar (38.1mm) takes a 38mm airtite and the Silver Eagle (40.6mm) takes a 40mm airtite but with the foam liners! Hope this helps? Edited by crystalk64 04/15/2007 5:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Mila_cent Pillar of the Community United States 1767 Posts	Posted 04/15/2007 6:05 pm Thank you crystalk, I hadn't thought of comparing it with one of my Silver Eagle's. In comparison the SE and Lunar are the same in size. So I used the capsule the SE came with, it fits perfectly. This capsule has a clear inner ring that will prevent the coin to 'jingle' when handled. Will be needing to purchase more of the same capsules in the future.

crystalk64 Pillar Of The Community 3147 Posts	Posted 04/15/2007 7:51 pm Quite honestly I prefer the airtites with the inner foam-like ring as it does keep the coins from sliding around. Glad my info helped you a bit! And, do take care of that horse!!! Its a beautiful piece of art from way down under! Report this Post to the Staff
