Here's a new one that you knock your socks off (could never understand that ). It's called "Two x Two Tuesday!!" All coins, tokens and medals in 2x2 holders. Easy Peezy..... Let's see what I can find, Hmm....
The phrase "knock your socks off" originated in the mid-1800s as an idiom to describe a very forceful blow or beating. It's now used to describe something that's surprising or impressive. Explanation The phrase is an idiom, meaning it's not meant to be taken literally. It suggests that someone will be so surprised that their socks would come off. The word "sock" comes from the Latin word soccus, which was a small shoe worn by actors. Examples in a sentence "The young pianist knocked the socks off of the judges". "That display will knock their socks off". "I'm going to take you to a restaurant that'll knock your socks off". Two by two
In a plastic flip, two different ones due to the sizes. It’s not a coin, token or medal but it may be refined and made into one in the future. Lol
I think of a 2x2 as strictly the cardboard ones, and the plain plastic ones as "flips", but I guess anything 2x2 qualifies here. Now in an ANACS MS62 holder, but here's how it sat for 50+ years. My "hmm, I should be a coin collector" coin from childhood. People have been blown literally out of their shoes (and socks?) by explosions and lightning strikes. One such recent story here. I've always thought that's where the expression comes from. https://abcnews.go.com/US/lightning-knocks-atlanta-area-man-clean-smoking-boots/story?id=24262532
