    Does anyone know if 2X2's with opening sizes smaller than the size of a US or Canadian dime exist? My preference is to match the size of the opening to the size of the coin. I always keep all seven of the typical sizes for US coins, but there are no good matches for many of the low denomination world silver coins, or for US half-dimes or silver three-cent pieces. If there are no additional sizes in the US, does anyone know if other sizes are available in other parts of the world?

    TIA for any info.

    I'm not sure the answer, but most collectors prefer to use 2x2s that are one size larger than their coin. This allows us to see the edge of the coin and inspect it better. All of my 3 cent pieces are in dime holders with staples closer to the center. I would recommend putting them in dime holders.

    Nope, never saw one smaller than a dime.

    But, as Seattlite said, most prefer a larger size, to show the entire coin.
