In order to prevent oxidation (or whatever it's called when those rust-like spots develop) I got a bunch of dollar coin tubes. Unfortunately, the tubes are only half the size of the rolls, so I'd have to break them out of the roll to put them in the tube... what should I do, any advice would be appreciated, thanks!   06-26-2009, 06:18 PM   #2 (permalink) Timm129 Junior Member   Join Date: May 2009 Posts: 27 I store all my Sac rolls and Pres rolls in round clear tubes with the screw on lid. The ones made for the half dollar work fine I holds the whole roll including the wrapper. They measure 2.5 inches tall and 1.75 inches across. The rolls will be a little loose but they will be protected..   06-26-2009, 07:06 PM   #3 (permalink) jobsande Junior Member   Join Date: Jun 2009 Posts: 2 ah ok thanks!

I don't really save 'em (maybe a few nice older unc's), but they're fun to spend. I use them for bridge tolls, six packs, etc... I get a kick out of the reaction I get. Some people have never seen dollar coins. __________________ Jim   06-27-2009, 05:12 PM   #5 (permalink) green18 ANA# R3129541     Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Long Island, New York Posts: 7,416 My Mood: I put my rolls in a box that I bought from the folks at Brent-Krueger and, in the spirit of Mr. Popiel, "I set it and forget it". They still look great in their original mint rolls after these couple o' years. __________________ They also serve who only stand and wait....John Milton   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Tags dollar coin, presidential 1 coin, presidential dollars, sacagawea Would you like to support CoinTalk?
