Namssob New Member United States 40 Posts	Posted 03/30/2016 9:06 pm I was recently told by a dealer that they don't make dime sized 1.5 x 1.5 flips, they just use the cent sized for dimes. Is this true? The small space the dimes are making in cent holders is wreaking havoc with my OCD (both the space - AND - the possibility that the coin could rotate inside the flip, which DRIVES ME NUTS!!)

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 03/30/2016 9:17 pm Hard to believe nobody's made 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 flips for dimes? I have a bunch of these small flips for cents and 2x2s for dimes (ironically I just tried putting a cent in dime flip 10 minutes ago!) so I'll take a look and see what's in the box and let you know. Somebody, somewhere has to have 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 flips for dimes. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 03/31/2016 12:48 am The only 1.5 x 1.5 flips I have seen are vinyl, and may cause issues with coins and long term storage. There are 1.5 x 1.5 cardboard holders: http://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/pro...-coin-flips/ Report this Post to the Staff
BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 03/31/2016 07:27 am ^There's a link^ to what is listed as "Cardboard Flips - 1.5x1.5 - Dime Size" so it would seem they would have a different, smaller diameter window than cent flips. Fuzzy - "flip" is used generically to describe cardboard holders and clear plastic holders. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff

I bought a bunch, and when I received cent sized, I called to clarify. I just started using the 1.5's, so I wasn't aware of this fact. They did tell me that the 2x2's DO have a smaller cut for dimes, but the 1.5's do not. Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 188660 Posts	Posted 04/01/2016 11:34 pm Strange. I am certain that I have seen the 1.5" holders with dimes at the coin shows. The last few Mercury dimes I have bought were in them, or so I seem to remember. It could be that I am remembering it wrong.

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 04/05/2016 10:49 am Interesting. I'm going to a coin show this weekend. If I find them, I'll ask dealers where they get them from. I just looked in my Whitman catalog and none were listed. Report this Post to the Staff
hozer Valued Member United States 422 Posts	Posted 04/15/2016 10:23 pm I bought a few hundred couple years ago and they are for cents and dimes. 2x2's are coin specific. Report this Post to the Staff
1carpediem123 New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 04/18/2016 10:44 am I don't believe anybody makes the 1.5x1.5 for dimes, only cent/dime. I've never seen them. Report this Post to the Staff
