Thank you all! Excellent WWII commemorative, GLB! Quote:I didn't realize it but the Kookaburra goes all the way back to 1990. This one will probably be my only 2 oz Kookaburra. It's 50 mm, and I don't have a capsule or flip that will accommodate it. Plus it doesn't fit in my regular storage boxes.

Quote: It's 50 mm, and I don't have a capsule or flip that will accommodate it Yeah, that's a problem. Air-Tite makes a 2 oz capsule for medals but it's only 47.63 mm.

Quote: I tried a few times but I couldn't get it any better. I angle my phone by propping it with a carpenter's pencil so that it's not perpendicular to the coin. Then I use a piece of paper or black card stock so the coin reflects either white or black as works best. It takes quite a bit of finagling.
