I've seen 2x2's maylar holder sold by size of coin needed and I would hate to but one size to find later that I need a different size for other coins.
Would prefer to get an assortment package which includes all sizes.
Do any coin suppliers sell these 2x2's in assortment packs? Who?

Thanks,
mila_

Most of the places I have bought 2X2's from will sell them by the 100 no matter how they are mixed size wise.

Here is a tip ,,the cent 2X2's will work for dimes ,and the small dollar 2X2's will work for quarters ,, this gets you four coin sizes only buying two 2X2 sizes.

I buy mine by the 100-pack, as it's only something like $2.50 for the pack. I usually keep quite a few extras at a time.

No they're not assorted. They're 100 of each, but since I collect world coins by type (KM#), I usually get a year's supply for about $20-25. They're in Canada, but apparently send quite a bit to the US as you can buy in either currency. Can't say I've ever had a complaint as they have always gone above and beyond for me.

I just use the $.50 size for everything from Sacs to cents.
I don't put large dollars in 2x2's those are just for the lesser coins.

I have errors so I sometimes need oversize holders.

I buy 100 pack of nickel for cents and dimes, 100 pack of quarters for nickels, and 100 pack 50 cent for quarters.

error


ps I've place about 1000 major errors in 2x2's recently and then into archival photo 20 pocket slide pages.

PPS check ritz camera stores as the sell these (20 pocket 2x2 slide pages) very cheaply because everyone is going digital and they have tons of Overstock.

PPPS Always crimp the staples into the cardboard so they are flush.

As alrady noted many people just use possibly 2 sizes. Quarter size for everything up to quarters and dollar size for everything else. At coin shows lately I've noticed most dealers have switched to the 1-1/2 X 1-1/2" sizes for just about all small denominations. At coin shows they are running about $3.50/hundred but no taxes, shipping, postage, etc.
