Anyone know where you can buy coin tubes that will hold the last million penny rolls? I heard that the nickel tubes will hold the full rolls. If so is there a place in Canada you can buy them?

Thanks, C/As tubes are not clear but would do I guess, was hoping to get like 20 clear tubes some where from Canada but maybe ebay has some I guess I could get them from the US, but didn't want to pay more then like 50 to 75 cents a tube.

Found 20 on ebay from the US , good price but with shipping its just under $1 a tube , oh well.

Now hopefully the penny roll will fit since I have not tried this yet but read somewhere the last million rolls fit into the nickel tubes.

He has more if anyone is interested.

I bought the same tubes, like Northerncoins posted in the ebay link.
Fits perfectly.

Now looking to buy something similar for 2013 50-cent rolls.

The clear round are good for displaying. The square opaque (like from CA) are good for storage because they stack nicely.

I just have no idea which size to buy.
Without re-checking, I think our 50-cent piece is 27mm, while Half Dollar US is 30 mm, so assuming that Half-dollar tube will fit.
So will check the same seller, like you pointed, or just on Airtite.com (I need 3 only)

Thanks, CC-Ottawa for clarifying, I had no idea, what exactly CA has.

Yes the 2013 Canadian 50 cent is: Diameter (mm)27.13 and the Thickness is 1.95 mm so needs to be bigger because its in a paper roll etc. 25 to a roll

The American half dollar is Diameter 30.61 mm (1.205 in) Thickness 2.15 mm (0.085 in) only 20 to a roll so that might not work depending on how much extra space is in the tube length wise I guess.

Going to look at more tubes later.
