Oh, I'm still slobbering, just not enough for it to spread. :)
If I have it right, the 29mm is a larger Airtite with the foam ring which will allow you a little room to compress it for a slightly larger coin...
Because any knowledgeable collector knows that coin can be had in a Mint State slab from a reputable TPG for $44.
There were 424 Million Dimes minted in 1968 with no mint mark, not counting the Proofs.
I would be slobbering all over you right now, were it not for the cuts in CE. :)
