Does anyone know where I can get capsules that will fit these coins? I tried the 38 mm standard capsule but is too narrow for the coins. Thanks.

Airtite.com X38 - almost perfect fit. But....it has insert (black or white), and one of my 1.5oz Polar Bear, that one which stored in this capsule - got white areas on the edges. And here: http://aurinum.de/Muenzkapsel-15-Un...larbaerseriePerfect fit. Last time I ordered for both coins, and it fits great. But...last time as I remember website was in Eglish and : out of 10 capsules, these guys sent me 7 as ordered and 3 regular H38 (sure I had no proof to tell them about this fact).

Sometimes...SOMETIMES....if you call the Mint they will give you the proper capsules. The capsule is sold/shipped as two parts, top half and the bottom half. Each part has its on SKU number. Top # 102774 Bottom # 380248 If you have a dedicated rep at the mint, they tend to be more willing to help you out. If you don't have a rep, well, the worst they will say is no. I suggest that you call the mint and try to order the capsule via the SKU numbers I just gave you. https://goccf.com/t/169489You can see other people experiences here:

Quote: Opps.... just noticed Silveroid already posted this web site. You posted the page on English, and I only now found where to change the language, previously I posted the URL to German version.

(that time the Proof Polar Bear haven't been issued yet). So these capsules look like air-tites, but perfectly fit the coin.
